Hurry with Submissions for NIH Entrepreneurship Bootcamp
NIH’s Small Business Program will soon host another cycle of specialized innovation and entrepreneurship training classes for teams of academic and small business investigators. The program is designed for research teams that have not yet received a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) or Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) award for their technology development project, and may even have not yet formed a company. The course will improve the commercialization potential of a project no matter what research direction teams ultimately pursue.
Learn more about the program at NIH Entrepreneurship Bootcamp.
If your team would like to participate, you must first submit a request form to verify that your team can commit the time and effort required to participate in the coursework, webinars, and one-on-one coaching sessions actively and consistently. The deadline to do so is August 16, 2024.
Distinguish the Priority Areas of NIH’s Institutes, Centers, and Offices
It can be hard to keep straight which is which among NIH’s institutes, centers, and offices (ICOs), especially since they are mostly referenced by their acronyms. You might not remember, for example, the differences between NIMH and NIMHD or NIA and NIAAA.
Helpfully, NIH lays out the mission areas of NIH ICOs on their new page Find a Fit for Your Research: NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices (ICOs). The page also indexes each ICO’s funding strategy and opportunities. Read Find a Fit for Your Research at NIH for further guidance on navigating NIH’s structure to align your research interests with a matching ICO.
