Grants up to $25,000 are available for diabetes, endocrinology research


April 6, 2001


Faculty members who conduct research in the areas of diabetes and endocrinology may apply for funding through the Diabetes Research and Training Center (DRTC) at the School of Medicine.

Researchers from Hilltop and Medical campuses are encouraged to apply for the two-year, $10,000-$25,000 grants, which begin Dec. 1. Applicants from basic science, epidemiological and behavioral science departments are particularly encouraged.

The DRTC pilot and feasibility program fosters projects required to develop preliminary data that could lead to independent research supported by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The NIH awards three to four of these projects at the medical school each year.

Those interested must submit letters of intent to the DRTC by June 15; proposals must be submitted by Aug. 15. Both should be sent to Vicky Nordike at Campus Box 8127. For more information, call 362-8290.
