Up to $650,000 available for TBI research

The 2020 Massey TBI Grand Challenge is underway. The deadline for 10-page proposals is quickly approaching, but there’s still plenty of time! Proposals are due July 10.

Up to $650,000 is available in 2020 to fund the development of diagnostic, device, therapeutic or health IT solutions that address the initial “golden hours” of care after severe traumatic brain injury (generally the first 48 hours). Applicants will also be eligible for the Schwabauer Accelerator Award, an additional $40,000 awarded to the project that demonstrates the greatest impact to the translational pipeline.

For more information, visit the official Grand Challenge web page. MCIRCC mentors and coaches are standing by and ready to work with participating teams throughout the proposal process.
