New Investigator Development Program

The New Investigator Development Program (NIDP) helps junior faculty members develop effective research proposals in a two phase process. In Grants 101, they learn about UTHSC-H research policies and procedures, and, in Grants 102, they refine their skills for writing competitive grant applications. The Program is led by the New Investigator Development and sponsored by the Office of Research.

Grants 101
A seminar for two half days that provides an overview of policies and procedures for submitting and managing UTHSC-H research grants and contracts. The next session will be held October 9 & 10, 2006. Registration is open and available to the first 200 applicants. The presentations will be available here online during the session.

Participants develop a grant application that is peer reviewed and ready to submit for external funding at the close of the workshop. Participants are selected by the New Investigator Development Team, and applications must be submitted by October 11, 2006.
