Congratulations to the 2025-2026 UMB ICTR CEnR and ATIP Pilot Grant Awardees!

Providing voucher support or pilot grants to researchers to help access resources to generate pilot and preliminary data is a vital component of UMB’s mission to remove barriers to clinical translational research that will improve the health of our Baltimore community, Maryland, and the Mid-Atlantic region. 

Please Note!  If you are seeking biostatistics, community collaboration/engagement consultation, dissemination/implementation expertise, drug discovery/development expertise, informatics (clinical data, REDCap services), or a studio, please visit our Investigator Resources page https://www.umaryland.edu/ictr/investigator-resources/.  

UMB ICTR CTSA Pilot Grant and Voucher (micro-grant) Funding Opportunities

All publications, abstracts, poster presentations, grant applications, intellectual property disclosures resulting from research supported by the UMB ICTR Cores (Biostatistics, Informatics, Community Collaboration, Dissemination & Implementation, and Drug Discovery and Development); ICTR Vouchers Program, ICTR Studios consulting service; Pilot grant funding; or the ICTR Scholar's Program should cite the University of Maryland, Baltimore, Institute for Clinical & Translational Research as a contributing source of support. Please include the following citation:

“We acknowledge the support of the University of Maryland, Baltimore, Institute for Clinical & Translational Research (ICTR) and the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) Clinical Translational Science Award (CTSA) grant number UL1TR003098.”

The University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB) and Johns Hopkins University (JHU) forge a powerful alliance with the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA).  As a CTSA Program hub (UL1TR003098-01), UMB now has additional NIH U01 and R21 funding opportunities that would not otherwise be available.  

1) form new collaborations, or to

2) significantly expand the scientific scope of existing collaborations, or to

3) engage new collaborators in pre-existing collaborations to solve a translational science problem no one hub can solve alone, or disseminate a solution to a translational science problem developed at one hub to other hubs, in so doing testing its robustness to different hub environments and structures and adapting it for further dissemination within outside the CTSA Program consortium if appropriate.

Community and Collaboration Core Pilot Grant
Information Session: Monday, October 7, 2024
Application Deadline: Sunday, October 13, 2024

Johns Hopkins Institute for Clinical & Translational Research Community and Collaboration Core Pilot Grants are designed to establish and develop community-engaged research (CEnR) partnerships. The Partnership Development Grant provides up to $10,000 to support partnership building activities for new collaborations between faculty from three academic institutions (Johns Hopkins University, University of Maryland at Baltimore, and Morgan State University) and a community partner (a community- or faith-based organization or public agency) from the Greater Baltimore area. While Partnership Development Grants may include some formative research activities, the grant intends to support activities that set the stage for future CEnR endeavors.

Applications are due by 11:59 pm, Sunday, October 13, 2024.

We are hosting an information session Monday, October 7, 2024 at 1:00 pm to review the current request for applications. To attend, visit https://jhjhm.zoom.us/j/95150970296?pwd=a8Kj3ZNag2tMlqljVTFIbUOC7R5Sv7.1
