The Partnership and Engagement Grants (PEGs) offered by Ohio State University’s Center for Brain Injury Recovery & Discovery (CBIRD) are designed to catalyze transdisciplinary research collaborations between faculty teams and external partners—including government agencies, community organizations, and industry. The program aims to foster sustainable, impactful partnerships that address complex, real-world problems within chronic brain injury and related neurological domains. Projects should be grounded in CBIRD’s key research areas, including injury mechanisms, assessment, intervention, and systems-level implementation, with a focus on measurable community benefit and the potential to secure future extramural funding.
