[Kipling (Kip) Will]

I am please to announce the Essig Museum of Entomology Visiting 
Taxonomist Grant

For full application instructions, requirements and details got to: 
http://essig.berkeley.edu/visiting_taxonomist_grant.shtml

This fund is to help defer travel costs incurred by taxonomic experts 
whose visit will enhance the state of the specimens in the Essig 
collection and associated electronic data.  Typical awards will be 
$600-$1000, provision being given for distance traveled and duration of 
time spent working in the Essig collection. Any person with taxonomic 
expertise and currently active research may apply. For 2012 we would 
like to encourage applications for experts in Coleoptera: Curculionidae, 
Diptera: Brachycera and Hymenoptera: Ichneumonoidea, but all taxonomic 
groups will be considered.

Send all inquiries regarding the collection holdings to Peter Oboyski- 
poboyski at berkeley.edu

Applications will be received between now and 11 May 2012. Send 
completed applications or any questions regarding application procedures 
to Kip Will- kipwill at berkeley.edu

cheers,
Kip
