This work group session will provide an overview of two internal funding opportunities for faculty research projects. We will explore how to use these grants to help build a research agenda. In addition, the group will practice review of funder guidelines and discuss applicable proposal objectives.
- Information on the Caryl Towsley Moy, Ph.D., Endowed Fund for Collaborative Research is available at https://www.uis.edu/research/faculty-research-support/faculty-grants/. We will discuss avenues for making the required connection with faculty partner(s) from the Southern Illinois University School of Medicine.
- The Illinois Innovation Network funds collaborative research and focuses on the umbrella concept of “Sustaining Illinois.” This theme is viewed in a broad sense to include economic, health-related, and social-related problems that affect not only the state and its communities, but also the environmental sustainability of its food and water ecosystem.
