Summary: Seed funding for injury-related research addressing disparities in underserved or at-risk populations, supporting preliminary work for future federal grant applications.
The Medical College of Wisconsin's Comprehensive Injury Center (CIC) offers annual seed funding for innovative, injury-related research projects that address disparities in underserved or at-risk populations. This intramural program supports proposals spanning the T0-T5 continuum of injury research, with a strong emphasis on projects where injury leads to or exacerbates health disparities. The primary goal is to generate preliminary data or insights that will strengthen subsequent applications for federal grants (e.g., NIH, CDC, AHRQ), fostering the advancement of injury prevention and control science within both academic and community settings.
