MICHR Pilot and Collaborative Grant Program
| The Pilot Grant Program seeks proposals from basic, clinical and social scientists for bench to bedside and bedside to practice translational research. The goal is to promote development of novel solutions that will ultimately improve patient and community health outcomes. In addition to clinical and translational research, we welcome proposals for studies on health services, health outcomes, or health policy that inform practice, development, and testing of new hypotheses or interventions, and proposals relevant to developing new methods or best practices.
