[Taxacom] NSF PEET c ompetition dates

[Max BILLAH]

Judy,
I guess the date should read March 05, 2007 and NOT March 07, 2005 at the link given (http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2004/nsf04606/nsf04606.htm).

Maxwell.

  Colleagues,

  We are sending a reminder that the National Science Foundation�s program Partnerships for Enhancing Expertise in Taxonomy (PEET) is running a competition for 2007.  The deadline for proposals will be Monday, March 5.  The PEET program supports projects that work on groups of poorly known organisms, and is an effort designed to encourage the training of new generations of taxonomists and to translate current expertise into electronic databases and other formats with broad accessibility to the scientific community. The PEET program is a biennial competition that has been in existence since 1995.  To date 70 projects have been funded through the PEET program.  Significant infrastructural developments (e.g., museum collections, databases) and international collaborations distinguish all the projects.  We invite you to view the solicitation (announcement NSF 04-606; http://www.nsf.gov/pubs/2004/nsf04606/nsf04606.htm) for further details on the program and proposal guidelines.  

  Please note that the Cognizant Program Officer since Dr. James Rodman�s retirement is now Dr. Juan Carlos Morales (sbbi at nsf.gov). 

  Thank you,
  Systematic Biology and Biodiversity Inventories
  Juan Carlos Morales, Patrick Herendeen, W. Carl Taylor, Gera Jochum
