The NULab for Digital Humanities and Computational Social Science is happy to announce the recipients of the Fall 2024 Seedling, Travel, and Community Collaboration Grants. Seedling grants support pilot research to catalyze a longer-term research project. Travel grants support the presentation of NULab-related research at conferences or NULab-relevant professional development opportunities such as workshops. Community collaboration grants support digital and computational projects that center community engagement, citizen science, or community co-creation. These grants have funded research assistantships, data sets needed for research, access to tools and software, and travel costs for meetings that initiate, or further, a research project.
