Dear COEHD Faculty:

The NOI for the San Antonio Medical Foundation’s Collaborative Grant Program is due one week from tomorrow - December 14. We would like to encourage UTSA researchers to take advantage of this great opportunity.

 

This program is intended to provide “seed money” incentives for healthcare and bioscience entities engaging in new collaborative initiatives. Typically, projects are 1-year in duration and funded at $200K. There are rare circumstances where longer project periods and greater funding levels are permitted (see Guideline document).

 

Notice of Intent (NOI) Deadline: Friday, December 14th

 

Priority is given to the pre-identified areas of excellence (listed alphabetically) for our community of:

·         Aging Studies

·         Cancer

·         Diabetes

·         Infectious Diseases

·         Neurologic Disorders; and

·         Trauma/Wound Care/Regenerative Medicine.

 

Proposals should be submitted for exploratory or novel collaborative initiatives that break new ground or extend previous initiatives leading in a new direction or toward new and innovative approaches likely to raise the profile of leadership of the San Antonio community in healthcare innovation.

 

Please review attached Guidelines for further information and program contact.

 

Best,

Liana
