Dear Colleagues,
As the year comes to a close, the ANR Office of Contracts and Grants invites you to look upon the opportunities offered by a brand new year. The business of grant getting never ends, and our team is dedicated to advancing your skills and success in obtaining extramural funding through targeted funding searches, strategic proposal planning and development, project management, and collaborative partnership building.
Though winter is just upon us, it is never too early to have sights set on spring funding. Take advantage of the services offered to support proposal development. Request a consultation to assess the appropriate funding program fit for an investigator-initiated project, or map funding opportunities to target throughout the year. Actively watch for funding-related guidance and news distributed via the OCG Blog or UC ANR Mailing List announcements. Access grant writing resources and reference materials available to support independent proposal development. Seek our guidance and expertise in addressing grant questions at any stage from early concept development to project closeout. Engage us early to ensure appropriate support for large, multi-disciplinary efforts.
We offer the following opportunities, as you consider ways to support existing projects and future plans:
