This
announcement
from
the
Dartmouth
SYNERGY
Translational
Pilot
Program
seeks
to
fund
innovative,
interdisciplinary
research
proposals
that
have
clear
potential
for
translation
into patient-
oriented
care
and for
improving
population
health.
The
goal
of the
SYNERGY
Pilot Projects
Program
is to
facilitate
collaborative
translational
research
studies
within
all
our institutions
and affiliated
health centers.
By
providing
support
for
clinical and
translational pilot
studies,
SYNERGY
aims
to
accelerate
the
process
of
clinical, community-based,
and translational
research.
Grants
are
available
for
projects
that are
at
an
early
stage
and need
support to
create pilot
data
and/or
to
develop
research
concepts
that will
advance
translational
research
in any
of
four
focus
areas:
1)
methodology
and
technical innovation
for
translational
research
(MITRA);
2) population-based
translational
research;
3)
community-based
translational research;
or
4)
reverse-translational
research.
Successful
proposals
must
have a
high chance
of
leading
to
extramurally
funded
research
and/or
to
discoveries
with
the
potential
for
commercialization.
A total
of up
to $400,000
will
be
used
to
fund
SYNERGY
Pilot
Projects
in 2014.
The
total
number
of
awards
granted
under
this
RFA
will
depend
on
the
quality
of applications
independent
of
focus
area.
