RESOURCES FOR RESEARCHERS
Wayne State University
Here you can find information on:
Intramural research support
Guidelines for conducting research
Training modules on responsible conduct in
research
Funding announcements and opportunities
Featured research conducted by faculty
members at Wayne.
Office of Research and Graduate
Programs within the WSU School of Medicine
Here you can find information on:
Detailed instructions and guidelines for
grant preparation
Links
to identifying research funding sources via
federal grants and foundations
SPA “seeks to provide our school's faculty,
staff, and students with the best possible
resources to facilitate their efforts in the identification
of funding sources, submission of proposals,
and administration of sponsored programs,
private grants, and gifts.”
The administration and management of grants
and awards (policies, procedures, contact information,
personnel, and forms for pre- and post-award
status) are handled here.
You may also search for funding opportunities
within the SPA site via the following links:
SPIN is a computerized database of funding
opportunities (federal, nonfederal, and corporate)
designed to assist faculty and administrators
in the identification of external support for
research, education, and development projects.
Community of Science (COS)
The leading global resource for hard-to-find
information critical to scientific research
and other projects across all disciplines.
Find funding with COS Funding Opportunities
Identify experts and collaborators with COS
Expertise
Add yourself to the WSU Expertise Database.
WSU investigators can add information about their research to the Research Enhancement Program
This WSU program is designed to strengthen the
University’s performance as a nationally
recognized research university, as described
in the Strategic Action Plan.
Annually, President Reid earmarks funds to
enhance research to increase the number
of successful
faculty requests for funding, especially those
entailing multidisciplinary research and scholarship
that ultimately will advance graduate programs
and institutional reputation.
This program is intended to contribute toward
developing research themes for the University
that are consistent with an emphasis on the urban
mission, a global presence, and technology.
These themes vary from year to year. To find
out towhat research areas this year’s
funds will be allocated toward, visit http://www.research.wayne.edu.
In 2003 the focus was the Children’s
Bridge
The WSU Children's Bridge, a coordinated effort
to promote interdisciplinary collaboration
among faculty throughout the university to
address
interrelated challenges facing children.
The goal of the WSU Children's Bridge is to
bring together many disciplines and fields
from across the university to establish research
priorities
and develop outreach programs for improving
children's development and well-being.
Find information on:
Graduate programs
Funding sources
Resources offered at WSU supportive of infants,
children, youth, and/or families.
Database of WSU researchers and their interest
Information about the Women, Infant, and
Neonatal Database (WIND) housed in the
Department of Obstetrics
and Gynecology.
All researchers in the WSU community who
are interested in children's issues
are encouraged to become a part of the Children's
Bridge.
Research-related Educational Opportunities
at WSU
Academic
Staff Professional Development Committee
(ASPDC)
Committed to providing opportunities for academic
staff members to enhance their professional development
through its support of both on-campus and off-campus
workshops, seminars, and conferences.
Find information on:
Upcoming workshops, seminars, and conferences
on grant writing
Library research skills
Presentation and publication preparation
Materials from past workshops and seminars.
CHM Institute of Medical Education
The mission of the Institute of Medical Education
is to serve the broad and diverse educational
needs of CHM/WSU Pediatric faculty, fellows,
residents, medical students, community pediatricians
and allied health care professionals associated
with the Carman and Ann Adams Department of
Pediatrics at Wayne State University and The Children’s
Hospital of Michigan.
SELECTED RESEARCH RESOURCES AT NIH
Office of Extramural Research at NIH
Provides a wealth of information on funding
opportunities, grant policies, research submission
forms, peer review groups, and training opportunities.
Some of the links from this site are:
Center for Scientific Review
Serves as the central receipt point for all
research and training grant applications submitted
to the NIH.
Serves as the portal for NIH grant applications
and their review for scientific merit.
Manages the scientific review groups that evaluate
investigator-initiated applications.
CRISP (Computer Retrieval of Information
on Scientific Projects)
Searchable database of federally funded biomedical
research projects conducted at universities,
hospitals, and other research institutions.
Users can use the CRISP interface to search
for scientific concepts, emerging trends and
techniques, or identify specific NIH-funded studies
and/or investigators.
ECommons
A meeting place used by researchers and institutions
for the exchange of information with NIH.
The Electronic Research Administration (ERA)
Commons is a virtual meeting place where NIH
extramural grantee organizations, grantees, and
the public can receive and transmit information
about the administration of biomedical and behavioral
research.
Reviewers for NIH study sections, principal
investigators for grant applications, and grant
administrators (including WSU’s SPA officers)
are registered here.
Via Commons,
• Review sheets are returned to PIs, rather than
by mail or e-mail. Reviewers may also submit
their critiques and preliminary scores for
applications they are reviewing
• PI investigators may review the current status
of all of their grant applications. Detailed
information associated with their grants
as well as submission of progress reports for funded
projects also occurs at eCommons.
• Researchers
participating in peer review of applications
to NIH may receive
their assignments and submit their reviews.
