The UC-CUBA Academic Initiative awards up to ten $1,200 grants per academic year to
University of California Ph.D. students conducting Cuba-related research, including
travel, in any field. Two of the grants will be earmarked for health-related research.
Applications will be considered for both initial research explorations and for developing/completing
advanced projects.
