The Notre Dame Bioengineering & Life Sciences Initiative—a joint effort of the College of Engineering and the College of Science and a key component of the University’s strategic framework—aims to foster transformative discoveries in biomedical science and develop future generations of leaders to advance human health, with a special focus on vulnerable and underserved populations.
To advance this goal, the Initiative has issued a call for proposals to form collaborative multidisciplinary teams to address compelling problems related to any of its three research themes: Health Foundations, Health Technologies, and Health Equities. Faculty teams must comprise at least three members from different disciplines and may include additional research personnel as needed.
Interested faculty can learn more about the funding opportunity, including eligibility criteria and application instructions, here. Proposals are due September 30, 2024.
To assist in proposal preparation, the Initiative will hold two open Q&A sessions. The sessions will be offered in person at 103 McCourtney Hall and via Zoom at the following times:
- Wednesday, September 4, from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.
- Tuesday, September 17, from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.
