Shuk-Mei Ho, Ph.D., vice chancellor for research and innovation, announces the 2020 Medical Research Endowment Awards granted by the UAMS Foundation Fund Board. Approximately $100,000 from the endowment income will be available for research projects in 2021.
The application deadline is 5 p.m. July 20, 2020. Submissions will be reviewed by the UAMS Research Committee (i.e., faculty members from the Colleges of Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Public Health, Health Professions, Academic Senate and the Graduate School). Following reviews and recommendations, the UAMS Foundation Fund Board will approve the list of award recipients.
Please review the MRE online application form requirements carefully. Non-conforming applications will be returned without review. In addition, all applicable approvals (HRAC, biohazard, animal use, etc.) may be obtained after the grant has been approved by the UAMS Foundation Fund Board, but must be complete before funds are awarded. The review process should be complete by September 30, 2020 so work may begin January 1, 2021.
