> Hi folks, 
> 
> If you know any students whose work would benefit from visiting and working with the Natural History Museum of LA County's collections, please encourage them to apply for our Collections Study Award, due April 1. 
> 
> Prospective applicants should reach out to relevant curators and collections managers about their proposed collections work prior to submitting an application, to ensure that the project is a good fit for our collection. For Entomology, that's myself (mbarkdull at nhm.org <mailto:mbarkdull at nhm.org>) and our collections manager Giar-Ann Kung (gkung at nhm.org <mailto:gkung at nhm.org>). An (incomplete) list of the taxa represented in our collection can be found here <https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1oSQ6p1R07lbw8xqrZumMRkRpBXKZx54t4k12pY73gVA/edit?usp=sharing>. 
> 
> Details of the award, including eligibility guidelines, review criteria, and the application can be found here <https://nhm.org/student-collections-study-award>. Note that students within commuting distance of NHMLAC are not eligible for this award. Applications should be submitted as a single combined PDF document (with a CV) via email to Dr. Nathan Smith (nsmith at nhm.org <mailto:nsmith at nhm.org>). 
> 
> Please pass along this information to colleagues and any undergraduate/graduate students you believe would be interested in applying.

> Cheers,
