Research Information Sessions for Faculty/Researchers
There’s a lot happening in
Research and Economic Development this fall. Below is a calendar of events, that can also be viewed at http://research.ucr.edu/about/calendar.aspx
. There are several types of events:
· Information sessions for new faculty. While particularly useful for new faculty, all faculty and researchers are encouraged to attend. The initial sessions discuss how to use electronic systems for finding grants opportunities, and submitting proposals. Later session will focus on IRB, IACUC, technology commercialization and working with companies.
· Faculty networking lunches. These lunches are on particular topics and they are designed to get faculty from different departments to know about one another’s research to encourage collaboration. Topics include, Stem Cell Research, Genome Editing, STEM Learning and Education, Spatial Science, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Research. Reservations required. Sign up at the links below. (Vegetarian and Gluten-free options are available). If you have an idea for a topic for the winter or spring, please contact me.
· NIH Funding: Ilhem Messaoudi Powers will give several presentations on how to write a competitive NIH grant and an official from NIH will be here on Nov 16 to talk about Small Business Innovation Research Grants.
· Science Meets Business: In this event, faculty or students with technology of potential commercial interest and who are considering forming companies will present the technologies to entrepreneurs from Southern California Business community. There are two goals of this event: To get advice on how to commercialization and to network to find potential partners. If you are interested in presenting, please send mail to Rebeccah Goldware (Goldware@ucr.edu).
· PRIM&R workshops: Public Responsibility in Medicine and Research. PRIMR&R is a leading national organization that gives training for Institution Review Boards and faculty applying for IRB grants. They will give a full day workshop at UCR on OCT 29 appropriate for IRB officials, IRB Board Members (or potential Members), researchers who want to learn more about human subjects research, or researcher who want an in-depth overview of the IRB.. On Oct 30, there will be shorter versions covering the same topic and researchers conducting research involving human subjects are encouraged to attend.

UCR
subscribes to COS PIVOT which has several useful ways of finding grant
opportunities.
· Search for grant opportunities by keyword (http://pivot.cos.com/funding_main). I find the results more useful by restricting to Funding type Research, Applicant type Academic, and Sponsor Type either Federal Government or Foundation.
· Searches may be saved and new results emailed weekly
· Search for grant opportunities by profile. (Pivot automatically creates a profile based on your publications and grants, but you can add to this profile)
· Search for faculty at UCR (or other universities) whose profile contains certain keywords (see http://pivot.cos.com/profiles/main) or whose profile matches a funding opportunity
See http://research.ucr.edu/ord/funding/search-engines/pivot.aspx
for signing up for pivot. There will be an information session with a live demo
on using COS POVIT on 9/25/2015 from 10:00 – 11:00 in HUB 260

Sanofi Collaboration Opportunity
Sanofi is interested in funding collaborative projects that align
with the research priorities identified in the newly released Sanofi Partnering Brochure: (http://en.sanofi.com/Images/39903_2015%20Sanofi%20Partnering%20Brochure.pdf).
Sanofi also welcomes:
a. New insights into the biology and pathogenesis of select diseases
b. Innovative approaches that enable or enhance new and existing therapeutic modalities (e.g. nucleic acid therapeutics, gene therapy, etc.)
Sanofi has asked Emily Abbott, UCR’s Director of Corporate &
Strategic Partnerships, to share relevant UCR research summaries. Sanofi is particularly interested in projects featuring
novel targets with strong disease biology validation and an initial starting
point for drug discovery or even therapeutic intervention. By way of
example, a starting point can be assays amenable to high-throughput screening,
new animal models, new chemical or biological constructs, lead compounds, drug
candidates, biomarkers…
To be considered for a
collaboration, please fill out the on-line form for each research
area/technology you would like Sanofi to
consider: https://fs18.formsite.com/ebabbott/form1/index.html.
Or send the following information to Emily Abbott (emily.abbott@ucr.edu):
name, title, email, phone, lab website, title of your
research area/technology, research summary, and relevant publication(s).
The deadline is October 13. For more information: Emily Abbott (emily.abbott@ucr.edu,
827-4772).
I attended a DARPA workshop in
early September. DARPA is much different than other federal agencies in that it
creates new very specialized programs (or projects) each year and it is
extremely important to discuss potential projects with program officers before
apply (or even before programs are announced to help them shape
programs). Typically, a program manager creates 1-2 new programs in
the first two years they are at DARPA and then manages the funded investigators
for the remainder of their term. Below is a list of all program officers,
their interests, and the year they started. Those that started in 2015
and 2014 are more likely to be starting new programs than those with earlier
start dates. See http://www.darpa.mil/attachments/(6S1)%20Global%20Nav%20-%20Work%20With%20Us%20-%20For%20Small%20Business%20-%20About%20SBPO%20-%20Doing%20Business%20(Approved).pdf for advice on working with DARPA and http://www.darpa.mil/about-us/offices for more info about DARPA.

In
mid-august I went out to the desert to watch the meteor shower. We stayed in
Borrego Springs and the next morning we went out to the Salton Sea for birding
with the primary goal of finding burrowing owls There were quite a few visible
from the irrigation ditches in the agricultural land near there. Here’s a
photo of one tilting his head.
