About this Webinar

What funding opportunities are there for health sciences research given recent changes in the federal funding landscape? Join the GSA Health Sciences Mentorship and Career Development Workgroup as we host a presentation on opportunities for federal and foundation funding. Speakers will include both project officers and funding recipients, and we will discuss both current opportunities and strategies for writing a successful application, giving special attention to the key differences between federal and foundation funding opportunities. The discussion will be moderated by Dr. Kyle Moored (Assistant Research Professor, Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health) and Dr. Tara Klinedinst (Assistant Professor, University of Oklahoma Health Sciences College of Allied Health). We will include time for audience questions.
