OIBR Seed Grant proposals due Sept. 30

The Owens Institute for Behavioral Research (OIBR) is seeking applications for faculty seed grant projects in the areas of social and behavioral science. All faculty in the social and behavioral sciences are encouraged to apply, but OIBR will give preference to proposals from faculty who are currently fellows, affiliates, or grantsmanship development program participants of OIBR. In line with the mission of OIBR, projects must demonstrate a commitment to interdisciplinary research and, as outlined in the program announcement, lead to a full grant proposal to be submitted through OIBR or, if submitted through home unit, notification should be given to OIBR that a proposal is resulting from the project.

Attached you will find the OIBR Seed Grant program announcement, which contains information about application instructions and details regarding the review process, as well as the OIBR Seed Grant submission form. Please note all completed applications are due on Monday, Sept. 30, and must be submitted electronically as a single combined PDF to assistant director Kimberly Cherewick.

Questions about allowable expenses not referenced on the instructions, or any other facet of the seed grant program, should be directed to associate director of OIBR Jody Clay-Warner.
