From: REDKE Seed Grants <seedgrants(a)utsa.edu>
Good afternoon all,
The VPREDKE would like to remind faculty of the below seed grant opportunities with
impending deadlines.
With the first NOI deadlines fast approaching, February 15, 2023 for BHC and GREAT and
February 22 for INTRA, we want to note that pre-submission inquiries are strongly
encouraged for the BHC Collaborative Seed Grant and prospective applicants may send a
brief abstract to jenny.hsieh@utsa.edu<mailto:jenny.hsieh@utsa.edu>.
The Brain Health Consortium Collaborative Seed Grant (BHC CSG) program, sponsored by the
UTSA REDKE and Brain Health Consortium (BHC), is offering seed grants to support
transdisciplinary research in areas that advance our fundamental understanding of the
brain in health and disease, advance understanding of social determinants of brain health
(e.g., healthcare equity, educational equity, etc.), lead to development of interventions
to advance brain health (e.g., interventions for mental and behavioral health,
interventions to increase brain health literacy in underserved populations, etc.), or
advance research to increase inclusion of diverse populations in brain health research,
especially from underrepresented communities. CSG funding through this program is an
opportunity for UTSA faculty to begin innovative transdisciplinary research that will open
new areas of research strength and become competitive for long-term extramural funding. It
is expected that up to two grants for a maximum of $30,000 each may be awarded.
NOI Deadline: February 15, 2023 and Proposal Deadline: March 8, 2023
The Grants for Research Advancement and Transformation (GREAT) program, sponsored by the
UTSA REDKE, is offering seed grants to support new areas of research for faculty at UTSA.
The primary goal of these awards is to assemble preliminary data that can be used to seek
extramural funding and advance UTSA’s institutional research excellence goals (NRUF, AAU,
etc.). It is expected that up to four grants for a maximum of $20,000 each may be
awarded.
NOI Deadline: February 15, 2023 and Proposal Deadline: March 8, 2023
The Internal Research Awards (INTRA) program is part of the UTSA REDKE coordinated efforts
to promote research and scholarship of the highest quality. This program offers funding
for faculty to gain experience in identifying and submitting proposals for extramural
funding, gather preliminary data to support applications for extramural funding, and
enhance scholarly and creative activities. It is anticipated that twenty grants of $5,000
each may be awarded.
NOI Deadline: February 22, 2023 and Proposal Deadline: March 22, 2023
The Connecting through Research Partnerships (Connect) program sponsored by the Office of
the VPREDKE at the University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and the Southwest Research
Institute (SwRI), is a grant opportunity offered to enhance greater scientific
collaboration between the two institutions and to increase both UTSA’s and SwRI’s
research-funding base with cross-campus collaborative programs. The program encourages
interaction between investigators in support of the acquisitions of established
extramural, peer-reviewed research funding. This agreement provides unprecedented
opportunities for researchers to work together in addressing issues of mutual interest and
need. For this cycle, UTSA and SwRI have agreed on the targeted areas of Human
Performance and Urban Challenges. The proposal must have a direct application to solving
industrial, governmental, or societal problems. The combined contributions of the two
organizations are $125,000, of which UTSA will dedicate $50,000.
Proposal Deadline: March 22, 2023
The Transdisciplinary Teams (T2) program, sponsored by the Office of the Vice President
for Research, Economic Development & Knowledge Enterprise (REDKE) at The University of
Texas
at San Antonio (UTSA) in collaboration with the City of San Antonio (CoSA), is a grant
opportunity offered to enhance greater intellectual collaboration between the two
institutions
and to increase both UTSA’s and CoSA’s research-funding base with inter-institutional
collaborative programs. It is anticipated that 4 grants of $25,000 each may be awarded.
NOI Deadline: March 8, 2023 and Proposal Deadline: April 5, 2023
The RFPs with information on how to apply, faculty eligibility and deadlines are attached.
RFPs will also be available for download on the VPREDKE’s Internal Seed Grant Programs

Interested faculty should contact their respective Research Service
Centers<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2...
(RSC) to complete a Notice to the
RSC<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2F...
