The Center for Dissemination and Implementation at the Institute for Public Health at Washington University in St. Louis announced opportunities for funding and proposal development of interest to researchers interested in Dissemination and Implementation Science.

Funding Opportunities 

Dissemination & Implementation Seed Funding offers three types of grants:

  • Pilot grants support the development of innovative projects to enhance competition for external funding.  Recipients will receive up to $30,000.  Letters of Intent for pilot grants are due by January 15, 2020 at 5 p.m.
  • Small grants also aid the development of projects for external funding, and recipients can receive up to $7,500.  Applications are due by March 30, 2020 at 5 p.m.
  • RAD grants (Rapid-cycle D&I Add-on) enables investigators to rapidly “add-on” measurements or pilot data to an existing study to increase D&I understanding.  The application is based on a rolling deadline and recipients will be notified of decisions within 5 days of their submission.  Up to $15,000 can be received for this award.

Proposal Development Opportunities 

Dissemination & Implementation Proposal Development Bootcamp will be held Thursday, February 13, 2020 from 8 a.m. – 4 p.m.  The event is an annual, all-day intensive workshop that serves to develop and advance D&I grant proposals.  To attend, submit your concept paper (1-2 paper with aims) or an advanced proposal draft to dandi@wustl.edu. Applications will be accepted until January 2, 2020 at 5 p.m.
