The University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC) announced that it recently awarded three grants for LGBT research.
According to a press release, the university’s Chancellor’s Committee on the Status of LGBT Issues awarded three LGBT seed grants to help advance LGBT research at UIC. The grants fund three projects that cover a range of disciplines. The recipients were psychology doctoral candidate Jessica Salerno, anthropology doctoral candidate Zachary Blair and College of Education associate professor Stacey Horn.
The LGBT Seed Grant Awards are sponsored by the Los Angeles-based David Bohnett Foundation, which awarded $20,000 in June to start a seed fund.
