Dear All, I encourage you to consider the 2019-20 Internal Funding Opportunity for Research Equipment (see below). Priority will be given to shared tools with highest impact that are used by multiple groups. If space in the labs or the cleanroom is required, please coordinate with Mark and Ron so that that location and the installation is taken into account. If you have any questions, feel free to discuss with Zhihong Chen, Sunil Bhave or me.

The Laboratory and University Core Facility Research Equipment Program is jointly sponsored by the Office of the Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships and the Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs and Diversity. The Non-laboratory Research Infrastructure and Equipment Program is sponsored by the Office of the Executive Vice President for Research and Partnerships. The Laboratory and University Core Facility Research Equipment Program supports the purchase of capital research equipment in two cost categories. Part I is for research equipment costing up to $100,000 and Part II is for equipment costing from $100,000 to $1,000,000. The goal is to address critical and strategic research equipment needs and thereby enhance the research programs of individual investigators as well as multiple investigators reliant on shared-use equipment. * Part I: Applications for research equipment costing up to $100,000 will be submitted and reviewed this fall. Applications are due Oct. 2. * Part II: For equipment costing $100,000 to $1,000,000, a preliminary concept summary must be submitted this fall. Final applications will be submitted in late January and reviewed thereafter. Mandatory preliminary concept summaries are due Nov. 6. Final applications are due Jan. 27. The Non-laboratory Research Infrastructure and Equipment Program is designed to support research infrastructure and equipment needs in disciplines not driven by instrument-dependent research and supports these needs in two cost categories. Tier 1 is for minor equipment and infrastructure needs costing up to $5,000 and Tier 2 is for equipment costing from $5,000 to 20,000. Applications for both categories are due Oct. 2nd with awards expected to be made before the end of the fall semester. Guidelines for both programs and an application template are available from links on the Funding Resources<http://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/overview.php>, Laboratory and University Core Facility Research Equipment Program<https://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/lab-program.php>, and Non-laboratory Research Infrastructure and Equipment Program<https://www.purdue.edu/research/funding-and-grant-writing/funding/non-lab-program.php> webpages. Please distribute this information as appropriate. Kind Regards, Kristyn _______________________________________________________ Kristyn Jewell, C.R.A.
