Funding Opportunity for Outreach Efforts
FlyBase News

Non-profit programs anywhere in the world that introduce middle school, high school, or college students to Drosophila research are eligible to apply! The number of students that this funding would impact and financial need will be considered.

Past awards have been used to fund:

  • Outreach events to educate high school/college students in under-represented communities about Drosophila research
  • Summer research opportunities to introduce high school/college students to the fly model system
  • Making educational material accessible to under-represented groups online
