Funding Opportunities
Pilot and Feasibility Program
The Pilot and Feasibility Program fosters and supports pilot projects in diabetes translational research led by promising early stage investigators at the Center’s sites. The Pilot and Feasibility Program is designed to fund 2 projects, each of one year’s duration, in each of the 5 years of CDTR funding.
Applications are currently closed and will be accepted again in late 2022.
