The Center for Redox Biology and Medicine (CRBM) is seeking proposals for projects in need of support to advance research in redox biology and medicine aligned with the strategic areas of emphasis of our institution. Specific criteria include:
- Providing a high potential for submission of new multi-investigator extramural grants leveraging the new Team Grant Accelerator Program.
- Fostering clinical connections with research in redox biology and medicine.
- Building of new collaborations between members and among researchers from other centers at the Medical School or with Reynolda Campus faculty and centers.Supporting, through key preliminary data, specific plans to resubmit and secure extramural funding for studies close to the funding payline.
Successful pilots will receive up to $20,000, to be spent within a 12-month project period. These awards are open to investigators with faculty rank across the Southeast region of Advocate Health. This includes Atrium Health, Atrium Health Navicent, and Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist, including Wake Forest University School of Medicine. Collaborative projects involving other institutions such as Wake Forest University must include as PI or co-PI investigators at Advocate Health and/or Wake Forest University School of Medicine with a substantial, direct role on the project.
Additional information can be found in the RFA. Applications should be submitted through the ePilot electronic submission system. Questions about your research project and/or proposal content should be directed to Cristina M. Furdui (Cristina.Furdui@advocatehealth.org) or Leslie B. Poole (Leslie.B.Poole@wfusm.edu).
