Funding Opportunity: Faculty/Industry Collaborations

The Center for Biotechnology (CFB) announces a Request for Proposals under its Applied Research and Development Program (ARaD). Through this program, the CFB provides matching grants for Stony Brook University affiliated faculty and industry partners to collaborate on applied research and R&D projects.

Projects will be evaluated based upon their potential to positively impact the corporate partner, the potential for economic impact in NYS, and the scientific and commercial merit of the proposal. The maximum award from the Center for Biotechnology will be $40K and will require a minimum 1:1 financial match from the corporate partner. Smaller projects are also encouraged. All awards, including the funding provided by the corporate partner, will be established on campus in the name of the faculty collaborator and will be governed by a corporate-sponsored research or testing agreement, depending upon the circumstances. Projects are expected to start on or about July 1.

The application guidelines and forms can be found hereDeadline for submission is April 15, 2019, 5 pm.

Please contact the team at the Center for Biotechnology with any questions (Project Questions: william.hanes@stonybrook.edu; Budget Questions: annette.depietri@stonybrook.edu)

Unlocking the power of female leaders for a competitive and innovative future in STEM Occupations in the fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics are expected to continue to outpace non-STEM jobs over the next decade. Yet while women make up more than half of all workers with post-secondary degrees, only slightly more than a quarter of them are in core STEM fields. The Women in STEM Leadership Program encourages and equips women at all stages of their careers with the skills necessary to advance as productive and valuable employees in their chosen STEM fields.
