About the Seed Grant Program
In collaboration with the colleges of Architecture, Computing, Engineering, Management, Sciences as well as Research Centers (GVU & GTISC) at GT, Georgia Tech Research Institute (GTRI), Emory University's School of Nursing, the Georgia Tech and Emory University Predictive Health Institute (PHI), Children's Healthcare of Atlanta (Children's) and Atlanta Veteran's Administration R&D Center of Excellence (Atlanta VA RR&D CoE), the Health Systems Institute (HSI) has established a seed grant funding program to support collaborative and interdisciplinary research projects that will help stimulate innovative healthcare research and promote improvements in healthcare. The seed grant awards are specifically designed to provide funding for novel projects that demonstrate a high potential for enhanced diagnostic capabilities of diseases, lead to new inventions that yield new patents, licenses and/or commercial products, lead to high quality peer-reviewed publications and those with high potential to leverage seed funding into extra-mural support.
