REQUEST FOR APPLICATIONS
Great Plains IDeA-CTR: CTR Superstar Competition
Application Deadline: September 23, 2019 (5 pm)
The Great Plains IDeA-CTR network is excited to announce a funding opportunity. The grant will be awarded at the GP IDeA-CTR Annual Scientific Meeting on October 23, 2019. Funding will be awarded to an innovative research project based on criteria delineated below.
The goal is to raise awareness of clinical and translational research conducted by promising scholars who are developing innovative tools and methods for medical research. The winning investigator/team will receive a $20,000 pilot grant award to catalyze cutting-edge research that may translate to a sustainable product or a larger federal grant.
We are requesting a brief research pitch (2 pages maximum) to include: project title, principal investigator(s), participating institution(s), study aims, hypotheses, methods (brief overview of design, study sample, measures, and statistical analysis plan), one year deliverables, budget and justification, a statement addressing how the project advances CTR, and a lay summary. In addition, we ask that applicants provide a biosketch for PI and all key personnel. Please review the RFA documentation for complete details here.
Finalists will present projects at the annual meeting in October. The winner will receive up to $20,000 (direct costs) for one year, and access to resources of the GP IDeA-CTR to support these research efforts.
