Next Generation Grants

Sidebar

The Next Generation grant program is designed for postdoctoral fellows at SD CFAR member institutions, including those supported by T32, D43, and R25 awards. Applicants must be pursuing Career Development awards (CDA). The $10,000 (maximum) grants allow fellows to collect critical data in support of their CDA applications.

Purpose

To support specific proposals for projects that will generate data to strengthen planned Career Development Award (CDA) applications. Applicants must include a planned date of submission of CDA, and the planned CDA mentor must provide a letter of support within the application.

Restrictions

No salary support, no travel and no conference costs are allowed. Also, the proposed project cannot support training already provided by the T32, D43, R25, or other training program or award. Any research done in human or animal subjects requires appropriate regulatory approval. Only domestic applications are considered.

$10,000 direct costs
