Award Announcement:  MONDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2009

The Irving Institute for Clinical and Translational Research of Columbia University announces an RFA for Phase I of a two-phase collaborative pilot award providing incentives for both young clinical and translational investigators obtaining pilot data prior to submitting funding applications, and to more senior investigators who may not otherwise take that extra step and engage in multi- and interdisciplinary research.

During Phase I, four (4) pilot awards of $25,000 each will go to assist in the formation and planning activities of novel, cross-disciplinary research teams involving at least two of the four CUMC schools. (A school from the Morningside campus may be an option.)
