Description:

JDRF recognizes the need at this time to support the research of investigators whose research is being curtailed or delayed by failure to receive funding. It is beneficial and of mutual interest to both the scientific community and JDRF to keep these scientists in the field, to help them receive funding for their proposals, and to have them help accelerate the JDRF mission.

The high-priority, short-term bridge award research plan may not exceed 2 pages, including figures and tables, and should indicate any changes in scope from the original application (revised specific aims) and in the timeline. Applications with research plans exceeding the page limit will not be reviewed.

Application Details:

This award will provide one year of funding of USD 55,000 for research grant applications that address a high priority research area for JDRF, failed to receive funding but scored within 10% of the funding payline for a review cycle of a research funding agency up to a year prior to the request to JDRF. The goal of this bridge funding is to help investigators generate additional supporting data for an amended, competitive application. Applications must hold an MD, DMD, DVM, PhD, or equivalent and have a faculty position or equivalent at a college, university, medial school, or other research facility. There are no citizenship requirements for this program.

All applications must be completed using the templates provided on the proposalCENTRAL website. See the Applicant Guidelines on the Sponsor website for specific requirements.

INDIRECT COSTS OF 10% MUST BE INCLUDED IN THE BUDGET

NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
