CBR Research Grants

General Information

The CBR Program awards grants twice each year for promising research projects that have Co-Principal investigators from both UMass-Amherst and Baystate Medical Center. CBR Research Grants provide initial support for physicians and scientists to collaborate on a biomedical project and are intended to serve as "seed funds" to help the collaborative team gain a competitive position for extramural funding applications. The awards help fund the work of a graduate student or physician on the collaborative project. Summer grant proposals are due mid-July, and winter grant proposals are due mid-November of each year.

The Program Oversight Committee meets to review all project proposals submitted to the CBR Program.

Summaries of projects that have been funded by CBR are available.
