Page 5 of 8: AFP Innovation Fund (IF) Call for Proposals – Submission deadline August 21/24

Applications are now being accepted for Round 17 of the AFP Innovation Funds.  As in previous years, the DOM will have an internal review of the Innovation Fund applications in order to optimize the chance for successful applications.  For 2024/2025, the Department of Medicine has been allocated $480,154.40 in total for new projects, after year 2 funding from last year’s approved projects is removed.  We are suggesting a maximum budget per project of $100,000.  There is also a competition for a large budget cross-discipline proposal of up to $200,000 for 2 years.

We ask that applicants send their complete applications to Jessica Comilang by August 21, 2024.  This deadline is for both large budget and all new initial proposals for the DOM internal review process.

Please check your inbox for emails from Jessica on this topic for full details, guidelines and required forms. You must be a full member of the DOM practice plan to apply as PI. Dr. Andrew Advani is overseeing this process on behalf of the Department of Medicine this year.
