First off, I know this is probably an annoying question, and one that, with a bit of effort, I would be able to find the answers to elsewhere, but I thought I'd ask anyway, in case anyone is clued up. If anyone is offended by the inanity of the question, please just ignore it rather than calling me a lazy, good for nothing loser, who if incapable of finding the answers himself, is thinking about the wrong thing....anyway:
Does anyone know how easy it is to get funding to do a PHD at a US university? (In a biology-related subject, as a brit) Obviously I know it isn't "easy"; what I mean is: is it virtually impossible, or is it something worth looking into?
