Description
The Zuckerman Travel and Research STEM Fund at Harvard University is designed to foster new collaborative research in STEM fields between faculty and researchers in Harvard’s Faculty of Arts & Sciences (FAS) or the John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences (SEAS) and their counterparts at Israeli research institutions. The fund specifically supports travel and meeting expenses for exploratory visits, aiming to catalyze new partnerships rather than support ongoing collaborations or direct research activities. Proposals that include participation of Harvard PhD students are particularly encouraged.
