The Caribbean Division of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), the Puerto Rico Science, Technology and Research Trust (PRSTRT) and Ciencia Puerto Rico have formed a partnership to offer an assistance program to support researchers, professors, science teachers and students following the emergency of Hurricanes Irma and Maria.   The initiative to raise funds that would help scientists continue their work and research was conceived and created by the Caribbean Division of AAAS, an entity with more than 120,000 members globally, and over 500 members in the Caribbean. Financial assistance grants will be awarded in three categories: Continuity, Restoration, and Thesis Grants.
