This year, CHIP has worked alongside the Psychiatry Department at UConn Health to fund a Seed Grant in Mental Health and Health Behavior Research. This Seed Grant aims to foster collaboration between researchers in Mental Health and Health Behavior at CHIP and the Department of Psychiatry at UConn Health. One Seed Grant of up to $50,000 will be awarded to teams of two PIs: one must be a CHIP affiliate, and the other must be from the Department of Psychiatry at UConn Health.
To facilitate researcher collaboration, CHIP and the UConn Health Department of Psychiatry are co-sponsoring a Mental Health and Health Behavior Networking Luncheon on November 12, from 11:30am to 1:30pm. This luncheon will be held in the Demo Room at UConn Health, located at 400 Farmington Avenue, Farmington CT.
Attendees are invited to give a two-minute presentation with a single slide on their research interests, expertise, and what they are looking for in a potential research partner. Lunch will be served.
