Seed or development grants DEANNA KNAPP 20 Dec 1995 08:55 EST

Our medical school is reevaluating how we provide seed
funding.  I would like to find out how your institutions handle
internal seed or development funds, if they do at all.  For
instance:

Does your institution provide seed money?

To whom?  __new faculty only ___graduate students
 ___Faculty with new ideas  ___carry over funds

Do you require the departments to provide matching funds?

What are the requirements for submitting a proposal?  Ex: 1)
Must have submit a grant through our office in the previous
year.  2) Must have a potential external funding source
proposal in hand  3) only consider proposals that have a pink
slip....

For how long may they apply?  Ex: one year, two years...

May an awardee apply for a second year? to continue the
project?  or submit a new idea?

What requirements are on the awardee? Ex: they must
submit a external funding source proposal within the following
calendar year.

Do you use internal funds to advance research in another
manner?  Ex: travel awards to external funding sources

Any additional information you want to add would be
appreciated.  Thank you in advance.

Happy Holidays.
