January 8, 2015 — The following was released by the Gulf Seafood Institute:
The Mississippi-Alabama Sea Grant Consortium (MASGC) is accepting pre-proposals for one- or two-year innovative research projects that address coastal issues.
A pre-proposal is the submission of a one or two page statement of the project’s goal, rational and qualifications. The form also contains contact information and other details useful in evaluating the idea. Funding requests of no more than $75,000 per year are recommended. A 50-percent non-federal match is required for all projects.
Pre-proposals for the 2016-17 Sea Grant research funding competition must apply to one of these MASGC focus areas: Healthy Coastal Ecosystems, Sustainable Fisheries and Aquaculture or Resilient Communities and Economies.
