Subject: AG2PI seed grant RFP released!
Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2022 14:49:03 -0500
Dear AnGenMap community members,
USDA NIFA recently awarded Agricultural Genome to Phenome Initiative (AG2PI,
https://ag2pi.org/) additional money to continue our seed grant program.
We will be funding 6-8 proposals that address challenges in
genome-to-phenome research and promise to move the science and community
forward. These awards are larger than previous AG2PI seed grants (up to
$250,000), which we term “coconut seed grants” in recognition of their
scaled-up size, and are intended to support new or “next step” research as
well as community-focused endeavors. High-risk/high-reward proposals will be
considered.
Applications will be due by 11:59pm CST (UTC-6) on Friday, January 6th. The
anticipated start date for funded projects is March 1, 2023 and each project
may be up to 12 months in duration. Further details regarding the request
for proposals, application and review process can be found on the AG2PI
website (https://www.ag2pi.org/...022-10-28/).
Note: Lead proposer(s) must be primarily affiliated with an institution or
organization that is eligible for a USDA award.
