Experiment Foundation

The Bio-logging Grant Program is designed to support and encourage the next generation of idea-makers and boundary-pushers to create and test new bio-logging tools. Researchers use bio-log tags to shine a light on animals across ecosystems, habitats, and conservation needs.  As technology drives the advancement and miniaturization of sensors, new opportunities arise to study novel species and explore the lives of animals in ways that are otherwise untenable.

This Plant Biology Exploratory Research Microgrant program seeks to empower those who wish to live in a world where plant biological research, naturalism, and education become an exciting aspect of personhood, where the tools and materials necessary to conduct meaningful research are globally accessible, such that anyone and everyone can participate meaningfully in the exploration of our living world. This is an international grant open to global applicants.

The Marine Protected Area (MPA) Monitoring and Enforcement Innovation challenge is designed to support and encourage the development of advanced technologies and strategies for the effective monitoring and enforcement of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs). 

Fast, flexible micro‑grants to help California field researchers — from students to seasoned naturalists — collect, voucher, and archive the specimens that power tomorrow’s biodiversity science.

For scientists who see discovery as a story worth telling — and want to bring the world along for the adventure.
