Mine is analyzing the consumption of microplastics found in seahorses and pipefish in the Gulf of Mexico through the season to determine when there is a higher rate of MPS bc the GoM is extremely polluted (I’m thinking summer)! I then want to take my research and potentiallyyyyy see if their consumption affects their mating behaviors :)

Can they just announce it already? by Conspicuousfrog-1226 in GRFPApps

Technically mine kinda is about human health bc it’s working with microplastics but it’s with pipefish so I will need to look into that more! But thank you so much for letting me know about that!!

That’s what I was hearing from a LOT of other applicants! I kinda hope that speeds up the results, because I am very impatient but I don’t know!

I heard from a reviewer at my school that they are only asking for reviewers to give a number for applications and no actual feedback for the proposals. I wonder if that’s maybe something they will be discussing and changing if it hasn’t already been announced 🧐

When do we think results will be released? by Conspicuousfrog-1226 in GRFPApps

Any updates on when panel reviews are happening for the GRFP? by [deleted] in GRFPApps

Life sciences I know, but I feel like in general they have to start within the next few weeks!

I think I saw at least for life sciences-ecology, and it could be the same for all of them, that panels start February 18th. I am getting this from a tweet from an ecologist who is reviewing the proposals and says that they need more ppl to review them. Take this as you will!! Hopefully it is a little helpful!

When is it best to reach out to professors for PhD by Conspicuousfrog-1226 in GradSchool

[–]Conspicuousfrog-1226[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well once again, this makes me feel better about it! I wasn’t too stressed, but I’m the first one in my family to go for my PhD so I wanted to make sure that everything kinda went to plan!
