The Center for Biotechnology on behalf of the Long Island Bioscience Hub is pleased to announce a request for proposals for our two-tiered technology development & commercialization program. Awards will be in two categories: Feasibility ($50k/12mo) and Proof of Concept ($100K/12 mo).  More information can be found thru this link (or view on CfB web-page)… 

Review the full funding program overview and proposal guidelines

Stony Brook University faculty and postdoctoral associates, alone or in partnership with companies or CFB-appointed BioEntrepreneurs-in-Residence (BEIRs), are eligible to apply. In all instances, the faculty member or post-doctoral associate must serve as the principal investigator, and the project must be executed on the academic campus at Stony Brook University.

Application Deadline: March 7, 2024 no later than 5pm.

Interested applicants are strongly recommended to connect with the Center for Biotechnology team before writing a full proposal and submission.  
Please contact Phuong Nguyen, PhD, at the Center for Biotechnology: phuong.t.nguyen@stonybrook.edu.

The Center for Biotechnology will be co hosting a series of 6- 90 minute panel discussions with industry and government partners, focused on providing guidance and insight into how innovators can take their solution from the benchtop to the Biomedical Advanced Research & Development Authority (BARDA).

Each event will have its own specific focus, while contributing to a sequential flow for the series. Experts with specific backgrounds will provide an overview of key resources available to innovators to help fund and advance their solution from early through late stages of development, as well as provide guidance on how to navigate the funding opportunities within BARDA and BARDA DRIVe.

Session dates: June 14, 17, 21, 24, 28 and July 1st. 12:00om - 1:#0pm EST. Learn more and register:

This program is a collaborative effort between incubators and accelerators who are partnered with them through their Division of Research, Innovation & Ventures (DRIVe).

Tools that accelerate medical countermeasure screening and development are vital to improving human health – from enabling personalized medicine to responding to health security threats such as pandemics. To this end, BARDA, in partnership with the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), part of the National Institutes of Health, has launched the new ImmuneChip+ program.

We aim to partner with innovators to support the development of advanced microphysiological systems / tissue chip platforms that integrate a component of the human immune system. The objective of the program is to develop a set of set of mature ImmuneChips, combining a previously validated model of a vital human tissue (e.g. lung, heart, kidney) with an immune system component, in a single platform that can be machine-manufactured and that includes multiple in-line sensors for long-term tissue monitoring. With this program, we aim to further enhance the usability of tissue chips and position them as useful tools in the drug development process and for personalized therapeutics.
