Hi Please find the few answers I recieved on sources for funding in Phylogeography and Australian fauna studies, in relation to PhD projects. Additional to below I made applications to the following agencies. 1#What is your project? I am also a ph d student doing phylogeography etc. I focus on freshwater crayfish. Have you tried the ABRS (Australian biological resources survey) or ARC (Australian Research Council)?Here's the link: http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/abrs/admin/grants/index.html 2#This organization may be useful to you: http://www.wcs.org/international/tcbp/rfp Unfortunately, most of the grants I know about apply only to USstudents. Good luck with your search! 3#Join the Genetics Society now! They have grants available for fieldwork, to anyone who's been a member for at least a year: 4# I do gene migration stuff; how i would answer (muchmuchsweat)= read acknowledgementsof all key MSs. jack Lighten
