Junior Investigators
New Connections’ grants for Junior Investigators extend for a period of 24-months for up to $75,000 to conduct projects based on RWJF team research and evaluation priorities. Junior Investigators are expected to commit between .25 - .75 FTE during the grant period. In addition to providing support for the researcher’s time, the award can be used to cover research expenses including support for mentors and methodological training.
New Connections is also dedicated to supporting the Foundation's pledge to reverse the childhood obesity epidemic by 2015. In support of this goal, the program offers special solicitations specifically targeting childhood obesity related research for Junior Investigators through collaboration with Healthy Eating Research and Active Living Research national programs.
New Connections is working with the Public Health Law Research (PHLR) national program office to offer opportunities in the field of public health law research. PHLR-New Connections grant opportunities will be offered in the Round 6 CFP released for Junior Investigators in February 2011.
