  8. NIH RePorter • Important search options: • Search by textword to identify research topics • Search by principal investigator (PI) • Search for University of Delaware as the institution • Search by grant number • Combine 1 and 3 to find who's doing research on a particular topic at UD http://www.udel.edu/research

  9. Finding Faculty Expertise http://scinav.udel.edu • Delaware Biotechnology Institute • Search for UD Scientists from over 20 departments and programs using Science Navigator • Delaware Health Science Alliance • Faculty/physician profiles • COS Pivot • Search over 3,000 faculty profiles from around the world http://www.udel.edu/research

  10. New NIH Biosketch and SciENcvhttp://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/notice-files/NOT-OD-15-032.html • New NIH bio sketch format is in response to comments from NIH reviewers and PIs • Now five pages vs four • May now describe five of your most significant contributions plus historical background that framed your research PLUS up to four relevant peer-reviewed publication or non-publication research products • Researchers involved in Team Science may describe specific role(s) • May include link to a full published list in SciENcv • NIH will accept the old format until May 25 New format! This one is even longer! • SciENcv- Tool to Help Build the New Biosketch • Science Experts Network Curriculum Vitae • Interagency system designed to create bios for multiple federal agencies • Pulls information from available resources like PubMed to develop a repository of information • YouTube video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRWy-3GXhtU&feature=youtu.be http://www.udel.edu/research

  15. Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) • Consortium of ~100 major Ph.D.- granting academic institutions, incl. UD • Aimed at encouraging and enhancing the strengthening of U.S. research and education • Opportunities are diverse in “field of interest” (i.e., Business, Communications & Graphic Design, Computer Science, Earth, Environmental & Marine Sciences, Engineering, Life, Health & Medical Sciences, Mathematics, Physical Sciences, and Social & Behavior Sciences), begin throughout the year, and vary with respect to US citizenship requirements. • ORAU funding opportunities and activities fall into two categories: • 1) Internships, Scholarships & Fellowships • 2) Faculty & Student Programs

  16. Top Five Funding Opportunity Links • UCLA Graduate & Postdoctoral Extramural Support (GRAPES) Database http://www.gdnet.ucla.edu/grpinst.htm • Searchable database for graduate and post doc funding. • Search for awards by discipline, academic level, award type, and minimum award amount. • Filter for travel abroad awards and exclude awards to U.S. Citizens or Permanent Residents • Cornell University Graduate Fellowship Database http://www.gradschool.cornell.edu/fellowships • Searchable database with funding opportunities for all disciplines • On the same page you can find great information about -Letter of Recommendation -Writing Your Research Statement • Texas A&M Externally Funded Fellowships http://ogs.tamu.edu/funding-information/fellowships/externally-funded-fellowships/ • Graduate and Professional Student Funding by Duke University https://ors.duke.edu/orsmanual/graduate-and-professional-student-funding • Includes international opportunities for US citizens and foreign citizens • COS PIVOT- UD Morris Library http://www2.lib.udel.edu/database/cospivot.html • Searchable database with funding opportunities for all disciplines • Includes federal opportunities , foundations, and private opportunities • Exclude awards to U.S. Citizens or Permanent Residents http://www.udel.edu/research
