The University of Maryland, College Park, and the University of Maryland, Baltimore established a joint competitive NIH Seed Grant Program in 2007. The intent of this initiative is to foster teams of investigators crossing disciplinary boundaries and campuses, establish specific research foci, generate preliminary data, and submit research proposals to the National Institutes of Health. There are many opportunities within the NIH extramural program that target teams of scientists, engineers, and clinicians that address specific health issues.
UMCP and UMB collaborative efforts in 2008 will continue to encourage and enhance the opportunity for these teams to make new discoveries important to future public health research goals.
