Funding Opportunities: Pilot Project Program
Letters of Intent
Women’s Health Research at Yale is pleased to offer pilot project funds for research that represents a new direction in women’s health, or explores gender differences in health and disease. We are particularly soliciting clinical or prevention research projects, and basic science projects that have a clear translational goal.
Our Pilot Project Program is structured to receive and review applications from investigators who are full-time Yale faculty. Because we are interested in encouraging interdisciplinary and inter-institutional research, investigators outside the Yale community are invited to collaborate with Yale principal investigators.
- Please review the guidelines for requirements and submission details.
- Deadline for Letters: Monday - October 22, 2012 (noon)
Full Applications - By Invitation Only
Full applications will be requested from investigators whose projects are consistent with the funding interests as stated in the Letter of Intent Guidelines. Investigators who submitted a letter of intent will be notified in early December if they have been selected to submit a full application.

The “seed” money provided by Women’s Health Research at Yale directly supports promising new studies across diverse and important areas of women’s health. To date, funded investigators have used the data from these pilot studies to apply for and obtain nearly $50 million in new external grants for further research - an enormous “return on investment.”
