Last week was a great week for research funding!
First, we awarded the next seven BOLD Ideas grants.
We had a great response, with 64 applications submitted by interdisciplinary teams from across the University and the state. The creativity, quality, and collaborations of the proposals were strong, and they addressed a broad spectrum of health and wellbeing in our communities.
This next phase of awards takes on some big challenges:

Congratulations also to awardees of two other grant programs announced this week: the Minnesota Partnership for Biotechnology and Medical Genomics and Regenerative Medicine Minnesota research grants! If you aren’t familiar with these three programs, please take a minute to learn about them.
Lastly, I know that a tremendous amount of effort goes into applying for these grants, and want to thank all of the faculty, staff, and students who helped prepare the proposals.
