Pilot Proposals Call: 2017-2018
Pilot research subprojects have been a successful component of our COBRE introduced in Phase II. This program brought on board new investigators and new ideas to the Center. In Phase III, Pilot Research Projects are an integral part of the Biomaterials COBRE. Competition for pilot research project funding will be announced annually. Call for proposals will be posted on this website and distributed to the University community through the Research Office website. Stay tuned for call for proposals for years 4-5.
