July/August 2023 Reminders and Calendars

Mark your calendars now for upcoming events and deadlines.

  • Next NIH New R01 / R21 deadline: October 2023.
  • Next NIH Resubmission R01 / R21 deadline: November 2023
  • If you plan on submitting for another funding mechanism, check the NIH website for specific receipt dates.

Those dates are about two-three months away, so it is not too early to begin thinking about your next application. It is respectful of our pre-award administrative staff to provide them notice of your intent to apply for a grant 30 days ahead of the submission date.

Early work on the key personnel, the effort allocation for each, a rough estimate of your supplies, equipment, travel, and animal budgets, and any necessary subcontracts or consortium agreements will smooth your application process, and level out the workload in our pre-award office.

Even if your data are only estimates, it will help the pre-award office personnel support you in your application. They will provide a checklist of all required items to be sure that your application is complete, and is not administratively rejected by the funding agency.

  • Researchers’ Lunch is held in person at noon, in JSA 4.108 with a light lunch served. Send me items that should be booked to the agendas. Next meetings: August 14, September 11, and October 9.
  • Research Mindset / Clinical Curiosity Conference held in person at noon in the Internal Medicine Classroom. The Internal Medicine residents would be pleased to have insights from our research faculty. Plan to attend as you can. Next conferences: 14 August (note the conflict with the Research Luncheon – addressed in future meeting dates); September and October TBD.
