The goal of the program is to better leverage multi-campus intellectual capacity in order to strengthen competitiveness for federal research funding. <\/p>\n<p>UNMC Vice Chancellor for Research Jennifer Larsen, M.D., who participated in Dr. Bounds&#8217; Nov. 13 retreat to generate ideas among faculty from throughout the University of Nebraska system, called the retreat a great success.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The next step is the Food for Health RFA,&#8221; she said. &#8220;We hope this mechanism provides the incentives to continue to work together with faculty of other campuses towards a common goal of greater research funding opportunities.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>There are three funding mechanisms associated with this program: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>planning grants: funding up to $20,000 total for one year;\n<li>seed grants for new teams: funding up to $150,000 total over two years; and\n<li>seed grants for existing teams: Funding up to $300,000 total over two years.<\/ul>\n<p>The complete RFA can be found <a href=\"http:\/\/nebraska.edu\/collaboration\/FoodForHealth\/\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n<p>UNMC principal investigators should submit their applications to <a href=\"mailto:Deb.Hawkins@unmc.edu\">Deborah Hawkins<\/a> no later than Jan. 6.<\/p>\n<p>For questions, contact <a href=\"mailto:pbturpen@unmc.edu\">Paula Turpen<\/a>.<\/p>\n<!-- <a
