Applications Are Open for the Goldstein Scholarship, Fall 2022!
MAS, the Meteoritical Society and Springer are excited to announce that applications are open for the Joseph Goldstein Scholarship. This award provides travel to a class or an opportunity to work at a different institution that would help with their research. More information can be found here: https://the-mas.org/awards/goldstein_scholar/. The deadline for the fall round is November 1, 2022.
The Joseph Goldstein Scholar Award, sponsored by the Meteoritical Society and the publisher Springer, is intended to promote career advancement for early career members of the Microanalysis Society, increase interactions of junior and established microanalysts, and to advance the state-of-the-art in microanalysis measurements. Activities eligible for the awards are: (1) travel costs for the Goldstein Scholar to visit a microanalysis facility to make measurements that advance the Goldstein Scholar’s skills and/or the state-of-the-art in microanalysis; (2) Travel costs / fees associated with attendance at a microanalysis school or training course, e.g., Lehigh Microscopy School, Hooke College of Applied Sciences, ASU, etc. and (3) costs associated with remote work such as instrument time. Up to five awards of up to $1000 each will be granted each year, with applications reviewed twice yearly in conjunction with the Winter and Summer Council Meetings. All MAS members who are less than 5 years beyond their terminal degree, and who have not received a Goldstein Scholar award within the prior 5 years, are eligible to apply. A one-time renewal for current awardees who need to make a return visit for additional measurements will be considered, in cases where this will have a clear impact on the results obtained, e.g., equipment failure on the first visit. The Goldstein Scholar Awards are supported in part through donations to the Goldstein Fund. The deadline for the Fall round is November 1, 2022.
