Description
The PHF Seed Grant Program is part of a research partnership between Presbyterian Health Foundation (PHF) and the University of Oklahoma Health Campus (OUHC). Its primary purpose is to help new OUHC investigators initiate research programs. It also supports established faculty starting new, unfunded projects and unfunded faculty beginning research programs.
The broader PHF research program aims to turn pioneering concepts into research studies, develop junior faculty, and help campus researchers build programs that can compete for national funding. Seed Grant applications from new investigators receive special consideration during review and funding decisions.
