Limited funds may be available for fellowship support of visiting scientists who come to the MDI Biological Laboratory to collaborate with our faculty and to support our education and outreach programs. Fellowship awards can offset housing rental, laboratory rental, laboratory supplies and hazardous waste fees. Funds are not awarded for travel, additional personnel or personal expenses. Self-funded scientists are also invited to submit applications for research programs.
