Purpose:
The objective of this program is to extend the impact of BARD-supported workshops, by funding a Seed Grant for early-stage joint research collaboration. These grants will help strengthen the relationship between the two parties and lay the groundwork for the submission of a full proposal. In most cases the Seed Grant” provides an opportunity to help investigators collect preliminary data to prepare for future BARD grants.
Eligibility:
Participants of a recently held BARD workshop who are affiliates of public or private non-profit research institutions are eligible to apply. Proposals must be submitted through such legally constituted institutions.
Application:
Joint applications by Israeli and U.S. scientists will be accepted together with the general BARD grants.
Submission Deadline: 3 months following the BARD supported workshop.
