As a STRI fellow, pursue your research questions alongside Smithsonian scientists, leaders in multidisciplinary fields of tropical research. Discuss your theories with peers at field stations after long days of collecting data on reefs or in rainforests. Add your voice to the animated debates at weekly seminars where STRI scientists share new theories and put them to a scholarly test.
STRI distributes more than $3 million for research every year. One young researcher is chosen for the Tupper Fellowship and receives full support for three years of post-doctoral research. Tupper Fellows play a key role in the STRI community, actively asking cutting-edge questions in disciplines from genomics to geology and contributing to lively debate and discovery.
