Working with faculty to creatively and effectively secure extramural funding from early career fellowships to large center grants, our team ensures that our campus is a vibrant, competitive, cutting-edge research community. We support faculty throughout the lifecycle of their academic careers, offering educational workshops and seminars, providing one-on-one proposal development consultations, organizing strategic initiatives, liaising with funders, and connecting researchers across disciplines.
