NIBR Global Scholars Program

NIBR Global Scholars Program is a highly competitive program that connects university faculty involved in drug discovery research and related technologies from the University of Michigan and other national and international academic institutions with the NIBR scientific sponsors to explore new and exciting research directions toward transformative medicines. Only U-M Principal Investigators and Faculty, but not post-doctoral fellows and graduate students, are eligible to apply, and only employees of U-M may participate. Projects selected for funding by NIBR will receive up to one million dollars over a three year period to cover direct and indirect research costs, and the Scholars will receive five thousand dollars for out of pocket travel related expenses to Basel, Switzerland or Cambridge, Massachusetts to attend the NIBR Global Scholars Program symposium. All proposals must be reviewed by Innovation Partnerships before submission to NGSP. Please email us at Innovation Partnerships.
