MARC
Visiting Scientist Program
The Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology (FASEB)
Visiting Scientists Program for Minority Institutions was initiated
in 1981. In this Minority Access to Research Careers (MARC) program,
U.S. based FASEB member scientists (see http://www.faseb.org/faseb/societies.html)
visit minority institutions for periods of one or more days to present
lectures and seminars of general and practical interests; provide
advice on research, curriculum, and graduate opportunities; discuss
career trends and opportunities in the biomedical/ behavioral sciences;
and assist in the preparation and development of grant proposals.
Follow-up visits by the scientists are encouraged as a means of fostering
collaborative research opportunities, as well as creating opportunities
for reciprocal visitations by faculty and students from the host minority
institutions. Feel free to visit https://career.faseb.org/marc/visit.html
for further details on the program and information on how you can
participate in this program.
Applications are accepted online at http://ns2.faseb.org/vsp/vspapp.asp
and a full list of US Department of Education approved minority institutions
is available at http://www.ed.gov/about/offices/list/ocr/edlite-minorityinst.html
