Dean's Research Initiatives Fund

The Dean’s Research Initiatives Fund will award investigators from Health Sciences with seed funding that provides the foundation or pilot data necessary to secure extramural funding for cutting edge, innovative and transformative research. One of the primary aims of the Dean’s Research Initiatives Fund is to support early career researchers from Health Sciences, by providing them with an opportunity to be named PI on a research grant.
