BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH EXTERNSHIPS FOR FACULTY
$8,000 maximum award
1 award annually
Faculty
at Oklahoma INBRE community colleges can apply for Biomedical Research
Externships with
a maximum budget of $8,000 to support a summer project in a lab at one of
Oklahoma's research-intensive institutions: the Oklahoma Medical Research
Foundation, the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, the University of
Oklahoma Norman campus, Oklahoma State University, or the University of
Tulsa.
Faculty at the following community colleges are eligible to be sponsored by a research lab: Oklahoma City Community College, Tulsa Community College, Redlands Community College, Comanche Nation College.
The funds may be used for both summer salary support and lab supplies for the lab sponsor. Please submit a 1-2 page description of the project, including a brief statement on how skills learned during the summer will be used in the educational mission of the community college. Also include a support letter from the lab sponsor and biographical sketches for both the community college faculty member and the lab sponsor. These materials should be submitted electronically to Dr. Frank Waxman at fwaxman@osrhe.edu
There is no set application deadline. Please apply by email to Frank Waxman at fwaxman@osrhe.edu.

Deadline for 2010 will be in February, 2010
$25,000 Maximum Budget
12 month Maximum Project Period
Next awards are expected to be made April 30, 2010 with a project period of one year.
The primary objective of the Mini-Grant program is to provide funding for faculty at the INBRE undergraduate institutions. Faculty funded through this program gain valuable experience in designing, conducting and reporting biomedical research, thus enhancing their ability to compete for extramural funding beyond the local level. A formal peer review process is employed to select the most worthy science for funding. Competitions for Mini-Grants are held annually.
Faculty at the following institutions are eligible: Northeastern State University, Northwestern Oklahoma State University, Rogers State University, East Central University, Oklahoma Panhandle State University, University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma, University of Central Oklahoma, Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Southwestern Oklahoma State University, Cameron University, Langston University.
The Peer Review Panel is selected from the graduate institutions and consists of faculty who have had their own NIH funding and/or service on NIH Study Sections. A mix of junior and senior graduate faculty are selected for service on the Peer Review Panel, thus affording junior graduate faculty a peer review experience that will prepare them for eventual NIH Study Section service. The application is then presented to primary and secondary reviewers, discussed by the Panel, and a priority score is determined using the NIH scale. Each applicant receives a formal written critique of their application in the NIH format.

The Collaborative Research Grant Program fosters research collaborations between faculty at research-intensive campuses and their faculty counterparts at the primarily undergraduate institutions. The Principal Investigator must be a faculty member at one of the INBRE undergraduates campuses listed below. The collaborative research must involve an investigator at one (or more) of the research-intensive campuses in Oklahoma: the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation, the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center, the University of Oklahoma Norman Campus, Oklahoma State University and the University of Tulsa. It is the expectation that the major portion of the budges will be allocated to the undergraduate campus.
PI must be a faculty member at one of the following institutions: Northeastern State University, Northwestern Oklahoma State University, East Central University, University of Central Oklahoma, Southeastern Oklahoma State University, Southwestern Oklahoma State University, Cameron University, Langston University, Rogers State University, University of Science and Arts of Oklahoma, Oklahoma Panhandle State University.
