Call for Applications: OACA Faculty Research Development Grant Program

July 19, 2021

The Office of Academic Clinical Affairs is soliciting applications for OACA Faculty Research Development grants that will support new or expanding interdisciplinary research which addresses significant clinical issues, is innovative, and has a high potential for return on investment (e.g., new NIH awards).

Note that clinical issues are broad; they can range from strengthening clinical practice through the discovery and development of new tools and approaches, to responding to community health concerns and societal factors directly influencing public health and well-being.

Applications can encompass a continuum from laboratory research to community-engaged/community-based research.
