CBC funded Awards

The CBC seeks to stimulate collaboration among scientists at Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, and the University of Illinois at Chicago that will transform research at the frontiers of biomedicine. CBC funding opportunities have enabled our three member institutions to create a novel and innovative collaborative effort, linking researchers, resources, and facilities to enable fundamental breakthroughs in scientific understanding. Catalyst, Spark and Lever RFAs welcome broad participation among scientists at our three member institutions. To learn more about previous awards, please visit the links below.
