Description
The University of Notre Dame’s Berthiaume Institute for Precision Health (BIPH) supports promising early-career faculty in developing research programs aligned with its mission. Unlike a project-specific grant, this award focuses on an investigator’s long-term potential and research trajectory. Flexible funding can support new research directions, preliminary data generation, or professional development that advances an externally visible research program.
Applications center on an ambitious five-year research vision, broad scientific goals, and potential long-term impact on human health or biomedical technology. The Institute prioritizes scientific quality and innovation, a clear programmatic direction, and relevance to precision health. It also considers the program’s capacity to attract sustainable external support and leverage Institute resources.
