Could maybe do something with Simon at CISERO in the future? 4th year or some post-doc?

Fulbright U.S. Student Program

https://us.fulbrightonline.org/about. Lots of opportunities depending on the country not all allow PhD students, Taiwan for example does. It seems that may have expected start dates in Sep 2020, so maybe try doing this in the future?

can get $3000 to do an exchange between labs. Maybe apply for this if going to BCO-DMO/NCEAS.

DAAD – Study and Research in Germany

DAAD provides a variety of educational exchange scholarships Germany. The Research Grant is specifically for PhD students wishing to pursue research in Germany. The Study Scholarship provides resources for independent study in Germany. The University of Arizona has been invited to nominate one graduate student for a DAAD Research Grant. If interested, please contact Shelley Hawthorne Smith (shellh@email.arizona.edu).

Deadline: Varies

Citizenship: Unspecified

Could maybe do this and get back to Bremen if need be (not my first choice) or maybe Pier Bork's group could be amazing but if Bonnie can't pay me. I think I remember there being a restriction on haven't been in Germany in x years, so have to check if/when I'd be eligible.

Research Grants - One Year Grant (7-12 months) Applicants may not have been living in Germany for more than 15 consecutive months by the time of application deadline. So I think I'd be ok, unless that means a total of 15 months. not sure.

Research Grants - Cotutelle Doctoral Programs Dual supervision in Germany/home country. Could maybe try to do this and be also supervised by Pier or someone back in Germany and get the money/travel grants. Same 15 months thing as above would need to clarify. I've emailed for clarification. This could be cool to be officially co-supervised and get DAAD money for it.

Short-Term Research Grants same eligibility stuff.
