MIDB Interdisciplinary Faculty Research Awards

Proposals may request up to $100k in support to fund two years of work; up to $400k will be allocated

MIDB Faculty Research grants are intended to encourage exploratory/developmental research by providing support for early stages of project development that could lead to subsequent externally funded projects (e.g., NIH R21 or R01 grants). Proposals can involve preclinical or human research but should have direct application to the mission of the MIDB. Faculty from all ranks are eligible to apply. Budgets of up to $50,000 per year for 2 years ($100k total) will be considered. You must have a position that is in a faculty track to apply for this award. Projects must be interdisciplinary, involving faculty or personnel from at least two departmental units and must utilize the services of at least two MIDB research hubs.
