Biomedical Research Collaboration Award

The Hartwell Foundation seeks to inspire innovation and achievement by offering Hartwell Investigators who have completed at least one year of funding to expand the frontiers of early-stage, innovative, and cutting-edge applied biomedical research through special or unusual collaboration.

Eligibility for a Hartwell Biomedical Research Collaboration Award will be limited to situations where the Foundation currently funds at least one of the co-investigators as a Hartwell Investigator. All collaborating researchers submitting for the Award should be citizens of the United States, must hold a full-time appointment in the sponsoring institution, and must be eligible to serve as a principal investigator in biomedical research. The Hartwell Biomedical Research Collaboration Award will provide funds up to $100,000 direct cost per year for up to three years. The Foundation expects to fund no more than two such awards each year.

The Foundation will evaluate proposals submitted for a Biomedical Research Collaboration Award through consideration of responses provided by the co-investigator(s) to both technical and non-technical requests for information. The Foundation will only consider funding proposals in applied biomedical research that reflect promise, have an unusual advantage accrued by the proposed collaboration, and that have a particular relevance in terms of potential benefit to children.

Interested Hartwell Investigators who qualify for this Award may contact the President of The Hartwell Foundation for further information and to discuss consideration. Other researchers interested in qualifying for funding are encouraged to contact a Hartwell Investigator to broaden or extend existing innovation by establishing a collaboration.
