2025 OK-INBRE Research Project Investigator Awards – Request for Proposals
Deadline: October 31, 2024
The Oklahoma IDeA Network for Biomedical Research Excellence (OK-INBRE) is soliciting applications for its Research Project Investigator (RPI) award program. The purpose of the RPI program is to foster and develop biomedical research programs designed to generate preliminary data that enhances the competitiveness of the investigator for future extramural funding. Full-time, tenure track faculty members (or equivalent) at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences or the Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation who qualify as an Early-Stage Investigator as defined by the NIH are eligible to apply. Awarded projects will receive up to $100,000 in direct costs per year plus applicable F&A costs for up of two years. The forms, instructions, and submission information can be found on the

Presbyterian Health Foundation (PHF) Technology Advancement Grant (TAG) Program – Request For Applications
Cycles I-III PHF TAG Grant Program Deadline: ROLLING APPLICATIONS
The TAG program replaces the Equipment grant program. The primary objective of the PHF TAG program is to provide partial funding for critically needed research equipment that could be transformative for the research mission at OUHSC. This program is fully aligned with Pillar 1 of the Strategic Plan. The TAG program will proactively and with the help of a committee address campus-wide needs and fill critical gaps, with the goals to grow the research enterprise, expand innovative technology and research infrastructure, and promote addition of new cutting-edge technology on campus. Funding priority will be given to research equipment that will permit OUHSC investigators to be more competitive for external funding and provides support to multiple users. Funds may be used for equipment to be purchased as part of a recruitment package for new faculty or for equipment to support the research of current faculty. If the funds will be used for a new recruit, the recruit must have signed the offer letter with a specific start date or specific start date time frame. Equipment and/or technology funded by PHF is expected to be made available to all researchers at OUHSC, whenever possible. All OUHSC Assistant, Associate, or Full Professors are eligible to apply. Applicants are required to match requested funds. The maximum allowable budget for this program is $500,000 (PHF funding: $250,000; Applicant funding: $250,000). The minimum allowable budget for this program is $60,000 (PHF funding: $30,000; Applicant funding: $30,000). Only one application will be accepted per investigator per year.
The Mathers Foundation Grant Program makes grants to selected universities and research institutes to support independent research in basic science, ideally with potential translational applications. In general, the Mathers Foundation reviewers look for innovative, novel proposals, which have scientific merit with an established published proof of concept, and which may not be fundable at the federal level. The award will be for three years and up to $700,000 (including 10% maximum IDC). Details regarding the application process, requirements for the Letter of Interest (LOI), and grant review cycle dates can be found at
