#  Deadline: FD&D Research Enabling Grant (REG) for Extenuating Work/Life Circumstances 

 



####  calendar\_today Date and Time 

 **November 8, 2021** 

 All day 

 



 

 Research enabling grants (REGs) are intended to provide financial assistance to eligible faculty facing work/life or personal/family challenges that threaten to impede their academic research and/or their progress at Harvard.

 The goal and purpose of this program is:

- to assist in the advancement of faculty who have extenuating work/life circumstances.
- to enable collaboration and cost sharing between FD&D and individual schools in the service of advancement of scholars.
- to provide direct support to the faculty member or to a project for which they are responsible.

 These competitive grants, for up to $30,000 (subject to required tax withholding), are to offset incurred expenses. Eligible faculty may receive one award of up to $30,000 within a five-year time frame. Related expenses must be a direct threat to your research, be temporary in nature, and fall into one of the following categories:

- **Additional dependent care** (child, elder, or other adult) for a specific period of time to enable research, including extended field work.
- **Additional personnel** directly related to your research (postdoctoral fellow, technician, research assistant, or grant manager).
- **Costs associated with the management of disruptive personal circumstances** (i.e. death of a spouse, disability, housing disruption, or other catastrophic circumstances causing a disruption in work/life responsibilities).
- **In exceptional circumstances, purchase of equipment that would enable more efficient research.**

 The REG program will not fund computers, except under unusual circumstances.
