- Investigators may propose projects in one of two categories:
- Category 1: Awards up to $50,000 (typically single PI).
- Category 2: Awards up to $100,000 for a group of two or more PIs from distinctly different disciplines who are initiating a collaboration with the goal to establish an ongoing, long-term connection across disciplines that is expected to lead to substantial external research funding through multi-investigator or center types of grants.
- Any Brown faculty member employed by Brown and whose research is administered through Brown is eligible. See 2025 Seed Award guidelines for complete eligibility.
- Proposal: 250-word abstract, 5-page project description, biosketch, budget, chair's endorsement (letter not required).
- This year, thanks to the generous gift from a donor, an additional $50,000 will be added to the overall budget. This funding will be allocated to a research proposal on Artificial Intelligence (AI).
Full proposal due Monday, October 28, 2024, 5 p.m. via UFunds
