In 2005 the American Philosophical Society launched the Lewis and
Clark Fund for Exploration and Field Research. The brainchild of APS
President Baruch Blumberg, the fund was created to support exploratory
field studies for the collection of specimens and data and to provide
the imaginative stimulus that accompanies direct observation. Since
its inception, the program has been doggedly interdisciplinary and has
supported over 900 projects on all seven continents in a wide-range of
fields, such as archaeology, anthropology, biology, ecology,
geography, geology, linguistics, paleontology, and population
genetics, among others.
To mark the 20th anniversary of this program, the American
Philosophical Society will hold an international symposium that
explores the current state of field work and its possible future
directions.

We look forward to welcoming you to Philadelphia!
