DIBS Competitive Seed-Grant Funding accepting applications

The Duke Institute for Brain Sciences (DIBS) supports two seed-grant funding programs. These high-risk/high-return funding mechanisms provide funding for research that is exploratory and therefore not yet ready for external funding. The Research Incubator Awards, for teams of faculty representing at least two departments or areas of research, and the Research Germinator Awards, for graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, residents or faculty, offer the chance to explore new lines of questioning.

Letters of intent are due by 5 p.m., Friday June 11, 2021. 

Full application is due by 5 p.m., Friday August 20, 2021.
