CMDR Pilot Award Program Now Accepting Applications
The Center for Musculoskeletal Disease Research (CMDR), an NIGMS-funded COBRE at UAMS, is a multidisciplinary center that encompasses a broad area of musculoskeletal research, including osteoporosis, multiple myeloma, cancer metastases to bone, osteoarthritis, osteomyelitis, and aberrant skeletal development. The long-range goal of the CMDR is to establish the scientific foundation for sustained excellence in musculoskeletal research in central Arkansas. One important component of this effort is to fund pilot projects to support musculoskeletal investigators’ efforts to pursue extramural funding. CMDR Pilot Awards will be for the funding period of July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2026. Two awards will be made in the amount of $65,000. The submission deadline is January 15 at 5:00 pm.
