Office Hours

Join us the second Monday of each month from 1pm-2pm Eastern Time for the Division of Environmental Biology’s (DEB) Virtual Office Hours. Representatives from each of the four clusters will be available to discuss specific programs and funding opportunities. There will then be an open question and answer period – questions can be on any NSF or DEB topic.

Join us remotely and bring your questions! Please use the registration link below to set up your participation in our Virtual Office Hour. Future DEB Virtual Office Hours will be communicated through DEBrief, so sign up for blog notifications for reminders.
