Research Funding
Keeping research on track
Since 2006, the Department of Surgery (DOS) Research Office has been making it possible for our surgeon researchers to pursue meaningful research focused work.
The Research Office is responsible for stewarding monies from the Department of Surgery to help foster research growth, to create collaborations, to mentor new faculty, and to help maintain established research projects.
Each academic year the DOS Research Committee sends a call to Faculty to apply/submit an application for certain grants - see schedule below. All grants are reviewed and ranked by the Committee, with the top submission(s) being awarded funding. Review Committee Terms of Reference.
Working within our annual budget we have earmarked funds for each grant call and category.
Please see our standard operating process for grant submission decision making, and further review our grading criteria here.
