The Herman Frasch Foundation awards grants to early career tenured or tenure-track faculty conducting chemical or biochemical research in agricultural chemistry that benefits U.S. agriculture. Grants provide up to $50,000 annually for five years, supporting projects that include training opportunities for graduate, undergraduate, and postdoctoral students. Annual progress reviews are required, and dissemination of results through publications and presentations is encouraged.
Applicants must be tenured or tenure-track faculty within the first seven years of their first academic appointment, with possible exceptions for tenure-clock extensions. The applicant's institution must be a U.S.-based academic institution.
