Summary: Supports Brown faculty conducting transnational, interdisciplinary research on intersecting dimensions of difference.
Key Information: Applicants must be Brown faculty.
Brown University’s Pembroke Center administers this seed grant program to support transnational research initiatives involving faculty from the humanities, social sciences, creative arts, health sciences, and science and technology studies. The program places interdisciplinary inquiry at the center of its support, connecting research across these fields with the Pembroke Center’s intellectual mission.
Supported initiatives examine intersecting dimensions of difference, including gender, sexuality, generation, work, class, race, ethnicity, language, citizenship, and religion. The focus is on understanding these dimensions in relation to one another rather than treating them as separate subjects. Grants are awarded in spring for projects in the following academic year.
