New York Medical College Intramural Research Support Program

Deadline for Receipt of Application is: Friday, November 2, 2012 - 2:00 PM

One component of New York Medical College's effort to foster biomedical, behavioral, and other health-related research is the Intramural Research Support Program. This program is intended primarily to assist newly independent investigators to develop preliminary data in order to secure extramural support for research, It is not intended to add to a well-funded laboratory, nor to support development of surveys, or to establish databases unrelated to a specific research project. We strongly encourage submission of proposals from faculty at our affiliated hospitals and for clinical research projects.

Funding for this program is provided through designated private NYMC endowments: The New York Medical College Fund, a research endowment established by the Alumni Association, parents, faculty, students and staff, and the Castle-Krob Fund, established by John K. Castle, former Chairman and an honorary member of the Board of Trustees.

The Fellowship Review and Intramural Research Grants Committee will review all applications and recommend funding.


APPLICATIONS ARE INVITED

This program will provide up to $10,000 for one year and is limited to full-time faculty without current funding for the proposed research project and is intended to support:

  1. New investigators whose research proposals will generate sufficient preliminary data to compete for extramural funds. The likelihood that the proposed research will generate extramural funding will be weighed heavily in the review process.
  2. Established investigators who are without current extramural support. In general, such investigators must have had at least five years of prior extramural support and a currently pending application to an extramural source.

 

Note: Persons who have received Intramural funding within the past three (3) years are not eligible to apply.
