Please be reminded of the upcoming deadline for the ConTex Collaborative Research grants. Proposals are due on February 16. The following is the message sent in October about the programs. Many thanks for your help in making faculty and students aware of these opportunities.

"We are pleased to announce today the opening of our Call for Proposals for the ConTex Postdoctoral Fellowship Program and the ConTex Collaborative Research Grant Program for 2018-2019. For more information on our programs, please visit our website, and to see last year's awardees, you may find the information posted here.

We have made some important adjustments in both of these programs that we think will make them both more appealing and more user-friendly for all involved. We are grateful for the feedback from last year's applicants and colleagues from CONACYT, Mexican institutions and UT System institutions, who have all played a role in improving our programs.

Thank you for your interest and support of these two important programs. We look forward to announcing further details regarding the Doctoral Fellowship Program in November."
