Funding Opportunity Discovery Database: Pivot-RP

The Pivot-RP research funding discovery platform offers powerful tools to search, filter and customize alerts within their expert-curated catalog of over $100B in research funding opportunities.

The Research Strategy and Development team supports the Brown community in their efforts to identify federal funding for research projects. Research Strategy and Development also manages all limited submission opportunities (both federal and foundation) University-wide. 

If you have questions about how to optimize your federal funding discovery approach using this tool or would like to schedule a one-on-one consultation, please contact Research Strategy and Development at orsd@brown.edu. For questions about limited submissions (federal and foundation), please contact research_opps@brown.edu. For questions about foundation funding, please contact foundationrelations@brown.edu.
