FY19 InCHIP-BIRC Seed Grant
Funding Opportunity Announcement.pdf
Letters of intent due by March 22, 2019 – BRAND NEW!
Description: UConn’s Institute for Collaboration on Health, Intervention, and Policy (InCHIP) and the UConn Brain Imaging Research Center (BIRC) are co-sponsoring a seed grant funding opportunity for faculty at UConn Storrs, UConn Health, and the regional campuses. This grant is designed to fund an innovative pilot project that will directly support an external grant application in health behavior or health policy with a substantial neuroimaging component. Health is broadly defined and includes physical and mental health and outcomes with critical implications for health. The funded pilot project must involve neuroimaging-related research that includes MRI, TMS, tDCS/tACS, and/or EEG usage at BIRC.
As a reminder, InCHIP still has the additional seed grants described below available.
If you need assistance finding one or more collaborators or you have questions about the seed grants, please do not hesitate to contact gregory.champion@uconn.edu.
For additional information about these and other InCHIP funding opportunities, go to InCHIP’s Seed Grant Opportunities website, which includes a recorded webinar with useful information about how to craft a successful seed grant application.

Letters of intent due by March 8, 2019 – EXTENDED!
Description: UConn’s Institute for Collaboration on Health, Intervention, and Policy (InCHIP) is offering a pilot grant program that promotes community-engaged health research in one or more Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHC) with reciprocal benefit to the FQHC(s), their patients, and the participating UConn faculty. This represents a unique opportunity for an FQHC(s) and UConn faculty to partner to develop sustainable, collaborative, streamlined, and mutually beneficial efforts to identify and address critical clinical and health systems issues.
InCHIP Rolling Seed Grants to Develop Interdisciplinary Research Teams
Deadline: Applications accepted on a rolling basis (mechanism will close when available funds have been distributed).
Funding Opportunity Announcement
Description: These grants provide funds to support the development of interdisciplinary research teams with high potential for securing external funding through activities such as (but not limited to) a one-day workshop or series of structured meetings to develop a research agenda and identify team leaders, conduct small pilot studies, or publish a high-impact literature review to establish a team’s expertise in a new area. Any activity that has the potential to prepare multidisciplinary teams to submit external grant applications that are consistent with the mission of InCHIP will be considered. Successful teams should be cross-department (at least 2 departments) and ideally cross-college (at least 2 colleges) or cross-campus (team members from UConn and UConn Health) and be comprised of researchers with a range of seniority and experience.
