The Institute for Integration of Medicine & Science (IIMS) is soliciting proposals for pilot project awards. The primary goal of this program is to support early-stage, collaborative, translational and clinical studies that will lead to increased interdisciplinary, institutional, and community-based research likely to compete successfully for national grant support and ultimately to improve human health. To learn more about eligibility and application details, please visit our website.

Letter of Intent Deadline: Friday, December 13, 2024

Please share this will all who might be interested.

The SNPRC Pilot Research program provides opportunities and support for investigators to use SNPRC nonhuman primate resources in highly focused, short-term studies with a high likelihood of enhancing the value, utility, feasibility, and attractiveness of nonhuman primates for biomedical research. High priority will be given to studies that propose to generate preliminary data for applications to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) for support of future research projects. Those proposing to develop new nonhuman primate models of disease, or develop and/or test new research methods, instrumentation, or approaches for biomedical research using nonhuman primates, also will be considered responsive to the goals of the program.

Information on the 2025 SNPRC Pilot Grant Program competition, including due dates for letters of intent and completed applications, can now be found on the SNPRC website https://snprc.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/10/SNPRC-Pilot-Grant-Application-Instructions-2025.pdf.

The Institute for Integration of Medicine & Science (IIMS) is now accepting applications for Translational Technology Resource (TTR) awards to support genetic analyses at the single-cell level and spatial level. The proposed research must have relevance to clinical and/or translational science.

Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis. Proposals received on or before the 15th of a given month will be reviewed by the 15th of the following month.

We are pleased to announce that applications are now open for the Burroughs Wellcome Fund’s Innovation in Regulatory Science Award.

The award is designed to support pioneering scientific approaches that address critical gaps in regulatory science, with funding of up to $500,000 over five years. We encourage applications from those who are exploring new models, methodologies, and technologies that could transform regulatory practices and accelerate the availability of safe, effective medical products.

To learn more about eligibility and application details, please visit our website: https://www.bwfund.org/irsa.

Applications will be accepted through February 7, 2025.
