  18. BCM OverviewAnnual Sponsored Research • NIH: ~$300M Awards on 1,000 submissions • Total: ~$400M Awards on 2,200 submissions • ranked 17th in US (126 medical schools)

  19. Applications • Applications are submitted from, and awarded to, an institution (e.g., Baylor College of Medicine) • Fellow and mentor are identified in the application • Fellow and mentor are identified in BRAIN, with fellow indicated as principal investigator (PI) in BRAIN

  20. Applications • Don’t be disqualified - read and follow the sponsor’s rules regarding format, deadlines, eligibility, and how to apply • Plan • Notify Mentor and find out how much time needed for review • Notify Department and find out how much time to review

  21. Applications • Verify what is needed: • IRB and IACUC protocols • Conflict of Interest Forms • Indirects • Committed Effort • Completed application must be uploaded in BRAIN, approved by mentor, sections, departments and in Sponsored Programs FIVE working days before sponsor deadline

  22. Applications • BRAIN proposal routing summary • mentor • section chief, if applicable • department chair(s) • Sponsored Programs • Application signatures • Sponsored Programs final signature • paper (investigator/fellow mails) • electronic (Sponsored Programs submits)

  23. Applications • Professional societies and organizations may offer small travelling fellowships to attend national meetings • Any honor, with or without funding, helps build your curriculum vitae • Some fellowships and many grants are portable, transferring to your new institution if you move

  24. Applications • Submit applications to multiple sponsors – you may not accept duplicate funding, but only approximately 1 in 4 applications will be funded

  25. Awards • Make sure SPO has award notice (forward non-Federal awards to spo@bcm.edu) • SPO reviews assurances, funds in BRAIN and sends to Grants and Contracts Accounting • GCA sets up account in mentors name giving access to funds
