Identifying Funding Sources in Public Health: Workshop for Faculty and Staff

Date: Wednesday, June 16, 2004
Time: 10-11:30 a.m.
Place: 1301 McGavran-Greenberg

The GrantSource Library and the School of Public Health invite interested public health faculty and staff to a workshop on finding funding sources for your research, departmental programs, and other scholarly endeavors. Susan Gramling, GrantSource Librarian, will provide time-saving tips for conducting a funding search and an overview of resources and services available to public health researchers through the Library. You will learn how to:

  • Make the most effective use of the Community of Science (COS) and Sponsored Programs Information Network (SPIN) multidisciplinary funding opportunity databases;
  • Set up a customized funding report via COS and other funding alerts (such as NIH, CDC, AHRQ);
  • Search for funding using specialized funding resources such as FedGrants.gov (federal), GrantsNet (biomedical and science education), and others;
  • Identify UNC-Chapel Hill internal funding opportunities;
  • Research actual funded awards made by NIH, EPA, and other agencies; and
  • Find help with planning and preparing your research proposal.

Advance registration is requested. Your registration will be confirmed by email. For more information, email Susan Gramling or phone 962-7766.
