New ACS/PRF grants approved Meeting in Cleveland on Dec. 7, the ACS Board of Directors approved 103 new or continued ACS-PRF grants for fundamental research, committing $2,052,151 of the $6,250,000 authorized for 1981. These grants were recommended from the 289 proposals considered by the PRF Advisory Board at its November meeting. The ACS-PRF grants program is funded by income from the Petroleum Research Fund, which must be used by ACS for " . . . advanced scientific education and fundamental research in the 'petroleum field/ which may include any field of pure science which . . . may afford a basis for subsequent research directly connected with the petroleum field." Investigators who wish to have proposals considered for funding in 1981 are urged to submit them as soon as possible. Proposals for the May 1981 meeting of the P R F Advisory Board will be accepted as long as possible, but past experience suggests submission by the end of February. For information or application material, write to: Petroleum Research Fund, American Chemical Society, 1155—16th St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20036, telephone (202) 872-4481.
