Faculty, staff, trainees, and students

are encouraged to apply for

Mid-South REACH Product Development Grants!

 

Cycle 1 Pre-application submissions are now open!

 

The Mid-South REACH (Research Evaluation and Commercialization Hub) program is a National Institutes of Health (NIH) funded program that extends across four states: Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, and Virginia. The primary goal of this grant program is to accelerate the real-world impact of biomedical and health-related innovations through education, mentorship, and financial support for aspiring entrepreneurs.  The Mid-South REACH program is not a traditional grant program. It is focused on product development and requires milestone-based project management in six-month increments, renewable up to four times.

Please see the attached Mid-South REACH Cycle 1 Request for Applications (RFA) and Pre-application Template, if you would like to start working on your pre-application draft now.  Please read and review the RFA in its entirety.

Pre-applications will be due May 24, 2024, by 5pm CT
