Officials in the biomedical and health care sectors can use a newly published directory from a Purdue Research Park affiliate to find grant opportunities and funding for research, faculty development, internships, assistantships, scholarships and more.
Schoolhouse Partners LLC has published the 24th edition of Directory of Biomedical and Health Care Grants. It can be purchased directly from Schoolhouse Partners or through Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble bookstores, EBSCO Information Services, Ingram Books and YBP Library Services. The information also is available on GrantSelect, Schoolhouse Partners' subscription-based online database.
Louis S. Schafer, editorial director, said the directory could benefit academic researchers, public health agencies, community health programs, senior care agencies and postsecondary institutions with students in health care fields.
"There are more than 5,000 grant opportunities from hundreds of sponsors," he said. "Sponsors include private and public foundations, family trusts, corporate funding programs, individual donors, government agencies at the federal, state and local levels, and nongovernmental organizations outside of the United States."
Each record is listed in three indices: by geography, program type and subject. Records include grant title; description; requirements; award amount; application deadline; contact information, including phone, fax, email and Internet address; sponsor name and address; and samples of awarded grants.
