American Chemical Society - Petroleum Research Fund Webinar

American Chemical Society has announced a new proposal submission process for the Petroleum Research Fund. In December PRF moved to a new grants database.  The new system is web based and will allow applicants and/or grants officers to enter the proposal information previously included in the downloaded forms directly through an online portal.  Only the process is changing; the information required is exactly the same as the previous forms.

Proposals will be accepted via the new portal from noon February 15, 2021  to 5:00 pm EST March 12, 2021.  Once the submission window is open principal investigators can add information and save as they work through the application process.  They do not have to prepare an entire submission package before engaging the system.  An American Chemical Society (ACS) Network User ID which may be obtained free of charge is required to access the system:   https://sso.acs.org/idp/service/default_login.jsp?pageURL=https://prfgrant.acs.org/login&loginStyle=normal.

ACS will host a live Zoom webinar on the new application process at 1:00 p.m. EST (10:00 am PST) on January 21. To attend the webinar, please register at: https://prftest.wufoo.com/forms/petroleum-research-fund-webinar-registration/.  The webinar will be recorded and posted on the PRF website.  Additional information is available on the PRF website www.acsprf.org or by contacting PRF info prfinfo@acs.org
