P2C Renewal – Affiliate Requirements

The Center for Demography and Ecology is preparing for the highly anticipated P2C center grant renewal. As part of this renewal application, we have named several key personnel, and as such will ask you for several pieces of information by July 31, 2026.

What we need from you:

• *See below for additional resources*

Step 2: Once your accounts are set up and linked, you can create and certify your Biosketch in SciENcv.

• Instructions for creating your Biosketch
