Michele Panuccio Memorial Grant

The Michele Panuccio Memorial Grant provides financial support for field research on raptor migration and conservation in the European region by young researchers (no more than 35 years old). The annual grant will be up to $3,500 plus waived page charges for publication in the Journal of Raptor Research. The Fund was established in 2021 in memory of the Italian ornithologist and ecologist Michele Panuccio (1976-2019), who devoted most of his life to the study of raptor migration. One grant is issued per year to support field research that advances understanding of raptor migration patterns and conservation needs in Europe. The recipient must be the primary author of any publication resulting from the award and the paper must reflect the research funded by the grant.
