Prairie Biotic Research, Inc.
Funding for Prairie Research
pbr-grants@tds.net
Prairie Biotic Research (PBR), Inc. is a Wisconsin nonprofit established in 2000 to foster biotic research in prairies. One way we do this is through a Small Grants Program that funds grants up to $1,000 for the study of any grassland taxon in the USA. We are especially eager to support independent researchers (individuals lacking institutional support), but anyone may apply. Since 2002, we’ve awarded 34 grants worth nearly $31,000 to researchers in 13 states to study insects, plants, mammals, reptiles, slime molds, mycorrhizal fungi, spiders, and invasive species. Many of these grants supported graduate student research. In 2007, we expect to fund at least seven grants of up to $1000 each with the donations we have received, including some restricted by the donor to support research in Iowa and, also, in Wisconsin.
