Research Affairs: Researcher's Alert for April 5, 2017 http://myllu.llu.edu/syncall/communityhome/?communityId=6088 en-us Mon, 29 Apr 2024 10:22:02 -0700 SyncAll RSS 1.0 6088:30127 <![CDATA[GRASP program announces new mechanisms to include FMG and MC employees]]> Administration A key goal of the institutional strategic plan for research, endorsed by our Board of Trustees and executive leadership, is to expand the number of faculty and healthcare professionals involved in extramurally funded research.  One mechanism for achieving that objective would be to offer incentives to faculty and clinicians with different backgrounds and capabilities to collaborate in the design of innovative, interdisciplinary research.

The Grants for Research and School Partnerships (GRASP) program has been expanded to allow non-MD employees of the LLU Medical Center (GRASP-MC) or the Faculty Medical Group (GRASP-FMG) to serve as Principal Investigators. These awards will provide support for pairs of investigators from different settings to cooperate in pioneering research projects. The purpose of the GRASP awards is to create an incubator for collaborative partnerships that will generate researchers with the ability to win major grants from external sponsors. 

More information and the Request for Applications can be found on the main GRASP page.
