Exploratory/Developmental Bioengineering Research Grants

Deadline: October 16, 2016

The goal for exploratory/developmental bioengineering research grants (EBRG) is to foster the exploration and development of innovative technologies, models, techniques, designs, and methods that have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research by infusing principles and concepts from the quantitative sciences to transform our understanding of biological, clinical or translational science.

Accelerating Research on Intervertebral Disc

Deadline: October 16, 2016

National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) invites applications for studies on basic biology of the intervertebral disc. The NIAMS invites investigators from all areas of cell biology, bioengineering, and orthopaedic research to consider individual or collaborative efforts to address these needs.

Biomedical Engineering

Deadline: October 20, 2016

The goal of the Biomedical Engineering (BME) program is to provide research opportunities to develop novel ideas into discovery-level and transformative projects that integrate engineering and life sciences in solving biomedical problems that serve humanity in the long-term. BME projects must be at the interface of engineering and life sciences, and advance both engineering and life sciences.

Biotechnology, Biochemical Engineering Program

Deadline: October 20, 2016

The Biotechnology and Biochemical Engineering (BBE) program supports fundamental engineering research that advances the understanding of cellular and biomolecular processes in engineering biology and eventually leads to the development of enabling technology for advanced manufacturing and/or applications in support of the biopharmaceutical, biotechnology, and bioenergy industries, or with applications in health or the environment.
