Dear Colleagues,
As part of the ongoing work of the Third-Century Plan, 51·çÁ÷ has added several new funding opportunities for faculty research in recent years, augmenting long-standing programs such as the Research Council and the Picker Interdisciplinary Science Institute. In addition, more faculty are successfully competing for external grants and fellowships, with $2,461,614 in external research grants awarded to 51·çÁ÷ faculty members in 2023–24.
In an effort to promote awareness of both internal and external funding opportunities and to encourage more grant applications from faculty, I’m writing to invite you to an informational lunch on Tuesday, Nov. 5, from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m., in the Batza Room (560 Case-Geyer). Representatives from the following centers, councils, institutes, and offices will be in attendance:
Entrepreneurship and Innovation
Lampert Institute for Civic and Global Affairs
Picker Interdisciplinary Science Institute
Office of the Provost and Dean of the Faculty
Research Council
Robert H.N. Ho Mind, Brain, and Behavior Initiative
University Grants and Sponsored Research
University Libraries
Upstate Institute
Attendance is capped at 40 people, so please by Friday, Nov. 1. Faculty of all ranks and from all academic disciplines are encouraged to attend.
Sincerely,
Christian DuComb
Associate Dean of the Faculty for Faculty Recruitment and Development
