Apply now for translational research pilot grants

Are you looking for funding for an innovative research project? Does your research address an area of clinical and translational science or a community-identified health priority? If so, you are encouraged to apply for Translational Science Award pilot funding.

Applications are open to faculty from all schools and colleges at U-M, as well as partners affiliated with community and patient coalitions and groups, nonprofit organizations, government and other agencies outside the university.

The funding is offered by the Michigan Institute for Clinical & Health Research, also known as MICHR.

MICHR encourages applications for projects at all stages of translation — from T1-T4 — that use one of the following approaches to research: investigator-initiated research, collaborative research, or community-based participatory research.

Applications are due Feb. 15 at 5 p.m. via UMMS Competition Space.
