Given grants, US scientists are free to study at any location supported by any research station on the continent. This privilege is given to any scientist from any nation that is a signatory or has ratified the Antarctic Treaty.

The United States supports three permanent stations on Antarctica: Amundsen-Scott South Pole Research Station, McMurdo Research Station and Palmer Station on the Antarctic Peninsula. In summer, several temporary research stations are supported from each of these permanent locations.
