NH-INBRE Funding Opportunities

 

NH-INBRE Research and Pilot Grants:

Partner faculty may submit requests for support for projects in which they commit 50% effort (Research Project, RP) or 25% effort (Pilot Project, PP).  Both types of projects can be collaborative and are called Collaborative Research Projects (CRP, 50% effort by the PI) or Collaborative Pilot Projects (CPP; 25% effort by the PI). Collaborative projects must have a single PI from an NH-INBRE PUI partner and one Co-Investigator from a different PUI or one of the lead institutions.

NH-INBRE Funded PI Expectations

NH-INBRE Seed Grant: to provide 1-year of funding (potentially renewable) to test new research idea(s) – entirely original areas of investigation for the investigator or a substantially new extension of previous work.

Proof-of-principle experimentation is one particularly relevant type of overall approach but other approaches may be responsive.  Preliminary data are not required for a competitive submission.

 

NH-INBRE Targeted Incentive Grant: to expedite submission of-

  • A) Manuscripts (especially data driven; reviews will be considered; however not letters to the editor, etc)
  • B) New/ Revised Grant Applications to national funding sources (NIH, NSF, and/or foundations)

For PIs with research results that are far enough along that additional experimentation and writing will reach submission by no later than:  papers: 6 months; grants: 9 months from TIG submission date

NH INBRE Targeted Grant APPLICATION - Rolling application

 

To assist our NH-INBRE partners, we have compiled a list of some resources primarily for biomedical research funding. Please work with your institution for grant proposal submissions.

Thermo Fisher Scientific - has created Oncomine Solutions as an integrated next-generation sequencing-based approach for oncology labs. The Oncomine Clinical Research Grant Program supports education projects & investigator-initiated studies (IIS) on molecular testing in reproductive health & oncology. The goal of the grant program is to increase high quality molecular profiling for patients and to improve future clinical outcomes.
