regional Pilot and Feasibility Awards
2023 Pilot and Feasibility Awards
Based on our recent Regional RFA for Pilot and Feasibility applications, we received 9 project proposals. With the support of NIH P30 funding, the Stanford Diabetes Research Center (SDRC) proudly announces the following 3 awardees.
SDRC is committed to providing support for the most innovative and unique research proposals related to diabetes in all disciplines. Our goal is to support, enhance and foster new ideas that will improve how we understand, diagnose, treat and care for diabetes and its complications. The P&F program is a DRC hallmark designed to meet this goal.
Thank you to all applicants for their submissions, and congratulations again to this year's awardees.
