The SENS Foundation Academic Initiative is pleased to announce that it will be awarding up to $30,000 in materials grants in 2012. These grants are available to undergraduate, graduate, and medical students, and may be used to cover the cost of laboratory materials for aging- and rejuvenation-related research projects. A typical grant will range from $500-$2000, but grants of up to $5000 may be awarded for group projects. These grants are meant to provide students with valuable experience in research and leadership, and to help set recipients on the course to a career in SENS-related research. As such, simple and straightforward "introductory-level" projects will receive full consideration.
The grant application can be found here. You can apply at any time. There may be a high level of competition, so students are encouraged to apply soon.

I wish this type of scholarship was available when I was at University. If you are a motivated life-extension activist - go for it!

If you know of students that support unlimited lifespans then be sure to keep this link in mind to send to them. A few students working on a few related projects, papers and things can go a long long ways. This is the kind of place where the seeds of the future Michael Roses and Michael Wests and Aubrey de Greys are planted.
