The Cardiovascular Sciences Center (CVSC) is seeking proposals for projects in need of support to promote new areas or technologies for cardiovascular research (basic, clinical, population), as well as to foster collaborative efforts or new collaborations. The goal of the pilot project is to allow investigators to pursue novel and innovative ideas that will improve the likelihood of obtaining extramural funding. The funding is also meant to allow investigators to perform critical experiments, access core facilities or improve analyses that address specific critiques raised by reviewers for extramural funding. Additional details can be found in the RFA. For questions about your research project, please contact Dr. Liliya Yamaleyeva at lyamaley@wakehealth.edu.
Successful pilots will receive up to $20,000 to be spent within a 12-month project period. These awards are open to PIs with a rank of instructor or higher from Wake Forest (Health Sciences & University), Atrium Health, or Advocate Health. If funded, the PI is expected to become a member and contribute to the CVSC mission.
Applications should be submitted through the ePilot electronic submission system.
