Extramural Funding

We locate external funding and collaboratives that closely align with your research goals.

 

Limited Submissions

Many federal agencies and foundations offer grants, awards and fellowships limiting the number of proposals that can come from one institution. To increase the chances of funding success, UTHSC must submit its most competitive proposal, which requires an internal competition. The Office of Research Development will notify investigators of these opportunities according to the procedure below, and review internal pre-proposals.
 

Limited Submission Process

Limited submission opportunities are sent out via the Research listserv. These notifications contain all information and links needed. 
 
Pre-proposals meeting the eligibility requirements are reviewed by committee for evaluation, with final nomination decisions made by the Vice Chancellor for Research. You will be notified as soon as possible of the status of your submission.
 

InfoReady Review

InfoReady Review is used for managing applications. Please go to InfoReady Review to identify active competitions. 
  • Limited submissions must be routed through the ORD (jwharten@uthsc.edu). Applications submitted directly through Cayuse or to the funding agency will be deemed ineligible.

Individual Consultations

For information on all funding opportunities including governmental sources (NIH, NSF, etc.), non-governmental disease related agency sources (American Cancer Society, American Heart Assoc., etc.), philanthropic organizations, including foundations, funds, and trusts, contact Jamie Whartenby, Director of Research Development.
 
Individual consultations can be arranged for investigators in search of funding opportunities in specific research or special interest areas (fellowships, equipment grants, non-US citizen-eligible grant opportunities).
