About this program
The Frank M. Chapman Memorial Fund at the American Museum of Natural History supports ornithological research through periodic postdoctoral fellowships, annual Chapman Research Grants (typically $1,000–$3,500), and Collection Study Grants (up to $2,000) for specimen‑based and expeditionary work. Chapman Research Grants are highly competitive with one annual competition (2026 deadline Nov 30, 2026; awards announced by Apr 2, 2027), while Collection Study Grants accept applications Jan 15 and Jul 15 to support visits to AMNH collections. Eligibility prioritizes graduate students and avian systematists; awards cover research expenses only (no salaries or stipends) and Collection Study Grants are intended to supplement applicants’ institutional funding.
