ITHS Technology and Resources Access Grants

ITHS Technology and Resources Access Grants

The "Institute of Translational Health Sciences" (ITHS) was funded through the NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA). The ITHS brings together scientists at the University of Washington, Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Seattle Children's, Group Health Research Institute, Benaroya Research Institute and other partner institutions in the Puget Sound region and in the WWAMI states to advance and transform clinical and translational research.

The ITHS is pleased to announce the opportunity to apply for modest "technology and resources access" grants. These grants will cover costs associated with the provision of services to you through an ITHS-approved facility core, shared resource, or cost center.
The aims of the Technology and Resources Access grants are to:
• Support the incorporation of new technologies into translational and clinical research.
• Foster collaborations between approved applicants and technology service providers.
• Encourage the utilization of the latest technologies and instrumentation into translational and clinical research.
• Promote the career development of junior faculty members in the ITHS.
Technology and Resources Access Grants information:
• Up to $10,000 per accepted applicant will be directly applied to the costs of the ITHS-approved facility core, shared resource or cost center.
