University of Kentucky SuRE Resource Center

Abstract The goal of the University of Kentucky SuRE Resource Center is to assist faculty and Office of Sponsored Project (OSP) staff at eligible institutions (<$6 million in NIH funding, >25% PELL eligible students) prepare and submit competitive NIH grants applications, with an emphasis on SuRE and SuRE-First awards. To accomplish this, UK faculty and staff with experience in all aspects of NIH grant applications will share their expertise with those at SuRE-eligible institutions through workshops and direct consultation. The SuRE Resource Center will also oversee a competitive seed grant program for eligible institutions and coordinate biennial SuRE Conferences. Taken together, these activities will enhance the research capacity at SuRE-eligible institutions and enhance high-quality student-centric biomedical research.
