conferences + grants + competitionsÌý

ÌýInÌýorder to promote dialogue and raise public awareness about the role of architecture in culture and society, the foundation is inviting applications from nonprofit organizations to assist with the production and presentation of significant programs about architecture and the designed environment. To that end, grants of up to $30,000 will be awarded to help organizations with production-related expenses incurred as it takes a project from conceptualization to realization. Projects may include but are not limited to public presentations such as publications, exhibitions, installations, films, new media projects, and conferences/lectures.

. Founded in 1956, the Chicago-basedÌýGraham Foundation for Advanced Studies in the Fine Arts provides project-based grants to individuals and organizations and produces public programs to foster the development and exchange of diverse and challenging ideas about architecture and its role in the arts, culture, and society.

The Office of Research andÌýEngagement has announcedÌýa new opportunity for faculty, staff, and students interested in health-related research at the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The UT NIH Research Community listserv (NIH@listserv.utk.edu) is a new forum to share NIH news and announcements, to learn about funding opportunities, workshops, and speakers, to connect with potential collaborators across campus and beyond, and to crowdsource questions related to all aspects of the NIH grant process—from proposal development to the application and review process to post-award management.

TheÌýASLA is accepting proposals for education sessions for the 2015 Annual Meeting and EXPO, November 6-9, in Chicago. If you are interested in presenting and sharing your knowledge with the landscape architecture profession, we encourage you to submit a proposal through our online system.Ìý for detailed information on submitting education program proposals. The deadline for submissions is January 29, 2015.
