Research
Pilot Projects
Small grant funding is available to support projects conducted jointly
by intermediate-term trainees and University of Iowa faculty mentors.
These grants are intended to facilitate a trainee’s research career
and form the basis for an expanded independent research agenda in the
future. Projects are eligible for funding from two sources, The University
of Iowa’s Environmental Health Sciences Research Center (EHSRC)
pilot grant program and the Fogarty
ITREOH small grant program. Funding of up to $10,000-$12,000 for
a 12-month period is awarded based on merit through a rigorous peer
review process. Criteria are as follows: relevance to center goals,
originality, scientific relevance, validity and reliability of methods,
qualifications of investigator(s), likelihood of future extramural funding,
and appropriateness of the project budget.
