The Story of PCORI

The federal Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) is a robust source of funding, but competition for contracts is formidable. Would you like to know about these opportunities and learn strategies for effectively writing and winning them? Please join Jennifer Ruden, Faculty Research Support Officer, for an informative and interactive session addressing the why, how and when of PCORI. This workshop is designed for faculty and staff who maintain all levels of grantsmanship expertise (including zero!).

Affordable Care Act,  AHRQ & HRSA

The Affordable Care Act’s (ACA) funding opportunities span many disciplines and interests, including research, workforce, education, and clinical care. Additionally, the ACA’s funding opportunities are growing while many other funding opportunities continue to decline. Faculty and staff interested in pursuing healthcare reform funding opportunities are encouraged to register for this training.  In this introduction, we focus on how to develop a competitive, effective grant application for agencies that have received a large share of the healthcare reform funding, including Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) and the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA).
