CTSI Pilot Funding Awards
CRC Pilot Research Awards
The purpose of the CRC Pilot Research Awards program is to support clinical research among junior faculty (ranks equal or less than assistant professor) who have not yet established independent NIH or comparable funding. The program will provide funding for research projects of up to $20,000 per year for one year with the potential to apply for a second year of funding of up to $20,000. The goal of this program is to develop clinical investigators who will successfully compete for NIH or comparable support and continue to pursue a clinical research-based academic career.
