Description
The Bridge Awards – International Support Allowed are part of Duke University's Provost's Research Support Program. These awards are designed to provide interim funding to faculty who are awaiting federal funding decisions and have a strong likelihood of success. Uniquely, this opportunity allows direct financial support for international collaborators whose contributions are essential to the project and who lack other means of support. The goal is to sustain research continuity, particularly for projects where international partnerships are critical, during periods when federal funding is pending.
