News Center for Dissemination & Implementation

Call for Pilot and Small Grant Applications!


The Center for Dissemination and Implementation at the Institute for Public Health calls for grant applications for 2023 Pilot Projects Program and Small Grants Program.

Our center’s seed funding programs are designed to support a broad range of dissemination and implementation studies, and aim to support the development of projects to the point at which they are ready to compete for external funding.

Applicants must be Faculty Scholars of the Institute for Public Health.

Pilot grants fund up to $40,000 in direct costs for one year. To apply, please submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) no later than 5 p.m. on February 6, 2023. Forms can be found on our D&I Pilot and Small Grant Funding webpage. If approved, we will invite you to submit a full application, which is due in April of 2023.

Small grant applicants may request up to $7,500 for up to one year for development of a D&I research proposal to be submitted for extramural funding. To apply, please submit  your application forms by April 3, 2023 at 5pm. Forms can be found on our D&I Pilot and Small Grant Funding webpage.

**For both types of grants, our center will prioritize funding for proposals that address sexually transmitted infections/HIV, COVID-19, or antimicrobial stewardship – the three research focus areas for our center’s Infectious Disease – Dissemination and Implementation Science Initiative.
