ECR also will ONLY accept proposals on higher education and/or the STEM workforce, for the upcoming Oct. 2 deadline.
The Spencer Foundation is offering rapid response bridge funding for those who lost NSF research grants.

Ugh so sorry to hear this Allison!
EDU also archived two STEM education postdoctoral training grant opportunities last week. STEM Ed OPRF (NSF 23-545) was supposed to have a due date of April 25 and that is no longer happening. STEM Ed IPRF (NSF 23-544) was also archived.
Calling prospective PhD students! The IU Psych PhD application deadline is Dec. 1st.

Check out my lab's recent work at #CDS2024!
I am hiring a postdoc to start this summer in my lab at Indiana University, on an NSF-funded project on preschoolers’ flexible attention to magnitudes (intersection of numerical cognition and executive function). Apps can be submitted here: indiana.peopleadmin.com/postings/22188. Please share!
I am excited to be recruiting new PhD students to the Indiana University Dept. of Psych & Brain Science to study preschool numeracy, math language, executive functioning, spatial skills, beliefs about effort, and more. Please send prospective students my way!
