The Stanford King Center on Global Development is a Stanford University research center working to improve the lives of the world’s poor. We support research, inspire students, and collaborate with thought leaders to make a real world impact.

This grant supports instructors to incorporate community engaged learning projects into their courses to address social or environmental challenges.

Grants of up to $10,000 to support new mass spectrometry projects and methodologies in emerging proteomics technology areas in support of early phase investigations and pilot studies.

The Propel Grants support collaborative research teams as they prepare proposals for large or strategic external funding opportunities.

Grants of up to $10,000 to support new mass spectrometry projects requiring LC-MS/MS targeted quantitation capabilities, in support of methodology development, early phase investigations, and pilot studies.

The EST Hub invites applications for funding to support the development of projects that advance understanding of ethical implications or societal impacts of science and technology innovation. 

For arts-related projects/events that align with VPA strategic priorities. 

CTL offers quarterly teaching advancement grants of up to $2500 to Stanford instructors to support projects that directly enhance learning for Stanford students, with a particular emphasis on IDEAL goals.

The King Center on Global Development invites proposals from Stanford faculty for capacity-building and policy-engagement activities that support academics, government officials, or other policymakers in low- and middle-income countries.

The King Center recognizes that conducting research in low- and middle-income countries is increasingly complex and that in extraordinary cases, faculty may have emergency funding needs for ongoing projects.  

Seed grants to boost researchers’ independence with hands-on mass spectrometry. Individualized, project-specific support empowers researchers to confidently design and carry out mass spec projects and generate reliable, actionable data.

Program overview:

The Stanford SPARK program supports the discovery and development of novel therapeutics and diagnostics that address unmet medical needs by offering funding, education and project-specific mentorship.

Stanford University’s Innovative Medicines Accelerator (IMA) is accepting proposals that address two major challenges in drug development: identifying drug candidates and optimization towards clinical leads. 

Supporting fundamental, inquiry-based research for all topical areas within the Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability community. 

Funding available is $150,000 for 2-year awards.

DUE: October 2nd The Neuroscience:Translate program supports translational research addressing unmet needs in any area of neuroscience. Resulting technologies & therapies are intended to lead to licensing exits to eventually reach the patient. 

OCE supports campus units with one-time funding of up to $50K to deepen Stanford’s engagement locally and nationwide, with priority for projects working with marginalized communities in Santa Clara or San Mateo counties.

The sustainability accelerator aims to co-create and scale solutions for climate and sustainability challenges globally. This request for proposals is for solutions for greenhouse gas removal from the atmosphere.

The Dunlevie Maternal-Fetal Medicine Center for Discovery, Innovation and Clinical Impact is offering a Fall 2023 Seed Grant to support researchers and scientists in advancing specific domains of maternal-fetal science.

The Propel Grants support collaborative research teams as they prepare proposals for large or strategic external funding opportunities.

C-ShARP (Community for Shared Advanced Research Platforms) invites new PIs to apply for Vouchers to be used in Stanford Shared Facilities.  Vouchers will enable new PIs to navigate the facilities and to engage the staff of shared facilities.
