About the Program The Seed Grant Program at Maryland has four goals for the development of faculty research: (1) to facilitate the development of strong individual research proposals, especially NIH and NSF applications, (2) to support junior faculty in proposal development, (3) to encourage faculty in allied fields or faculty who have not previously sought funding from NIH to develop grant proposals, and (4) to encourage grant development that involves faculty from more than one discipline. The Seed Grant Program is also a crucial mechanism by which we entice scholars working on population-related topics to affiliate and become active in the Center. Our approach to "seeding" promising, high quality research has been two-pronged. Initial funding from the University allowed us to begin with a limited, highly targeted approach (described below). The arrival of developmental R-24 infrastructure funds in the summer of 2001 allowed us to launch a competitive Seed Grant Program in the fall of 2001. We hope to continue this competition in future years using mixed funding to continue the program.
