Funding Opportunities Announcement
June 14th, 2007
The Life Sciences Discovery Fund (LSDF) announces its second grant competition for 2007. It is designed to support the development of new programs and initiatives advancing the Fund’s mission–to promote life sciences competitiveness, enhance economic vitality, and improve health and health care.
LSDF provides grants for two different kinds of opportunities: projects and programs. “Projects” are investigator-initiated scientific studies, relatively limited in scope, with a sharply defined research focus.
“Programs” are strategic research initiatives, designed to address problems within a field of study and to position an organization or organizations for future competitiveness and leadership.
LSDF 07-02 is a program funding opportunity. It is intended to support the launch of new, innovative research programs organized to address and solve problems in human health and health care. Each funded proposal will address how the applicant organization plans to launch and build the program it describes.
