The University of Kentucky Center for the Biologic Basis of Oral/Systemic Diseases (CBBO/SD) announces the availability of limited funds through the NIH P30 supported COBRE ”Pilot Grants Program.” This program is designed to support well-defined pilot projects focused on research examining oral health and/or oral-systemic health linkages. These pilot grants are intended to assist investigators in generating sufficient data to be competitive for extramural funding. Applicants from junior faculty and that demonstrate collaboration with oral health scientists are encouraged. Applications must demonstrate linkage with and/or utilize existing CBBO/SD core laboratories or services.

Individual project awards, up to $20,000 in total direct costs, will be made on a competitive basis. At least two awards of $20,000 or four awards of $10,000 are anticipated to be awarded prior by September 1, 2018.  

Full applications are due by July 13, 2018.
