Discovery Grant

The grant is intended to encourage exploratory/developmental research by providing support for the early and conceptual stages of project development. Exploratory, novel studies that break new ground or extend previous discoveries toward new directions or applications. High risk high reward studies that may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or result in novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models or applications that will impact biomedical, behavioral, or clinical research. Projects should be distinct from those supported through traditional grants.
