The Experimental Research section of the American Political Science 
Association (APSA) invites research proposals from post-prospectus PhD 
students for its Experimental Research Early-Career Fellowship program. 
As part of the fellowship, students will be paired
 with a senior scholar who will provide mentorship and feedback on their
 proposed experimental research. Fellowships will be awarded to up to 
five students. Each successful candidate will receive $500. Applications
 are assessed based on need, defined as the
 availability of experimentation guidance at one’s home institution, and
 the quality of the research proposal.</div>
