Description
The Focused Grant Revision Supplement Opportunity is an internal funding initiative from the University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine. Its purpose is to help faculty who have submitted strong NIH R01 (or equivalent) grant proposals that narrowly missed the funding threshold. The supplement provides targeted support to address up to two specific, well-defined weaknesses identified in the summary statement from the NIH review. Funding can be used for focused experiments, development of reagents, or adoption of innovative techniques that directly address reviewer concerns, with the goal of improving the likelihood of success in future resubmissions.
