Funding Opportunity Databases


Each of these databases provide excellent opportunities to search for grant opportunities based on a variety of parameters, including keywords, academic status, citizenship, type of award, etc. In addition, you may wish to make use of their e-mail services which will send you e-mail updates of grant opportunities in your area.

Grants.gov

Illinois Researcher & Information Service (IRIS)
IRIS has strengths in providing very up-to-date information on governmental sources as well as the private sector
GrantsNet
GrantsNet is particularly useful for beginning investigators, graduate student through junior-level faculty.
NIH Guide
The NIH Guide is e-mailed to subscribers each Friday and is an excellent and free tool for keeping up-to-date on new program announcements and notices. The NIH Guide also includes a useful search tool. To subscribe to the NIH Guide, go to: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/listserv.htm. In addition, it's always useful to conduct a funding search for the NIH institute(s) most closely aligned with your research. Each institute provides a list of active program announcements and RFPs. For links to the various of NIH institutes, go to: http://www.nih.gov/icd/.
SPIN for WWW – Funding Source Research
NIH CRISP Database
Another tool that can be useful in your search for funding is to find out about research that has been supported in the past, comparing what has been funded to that for which you are seeking funds. The NIH CRISP Database provides information on current and past awards from 1972 through the current cycle of awards. This database can be accessed by a keyword, PI name, date, and a variety of other parameters. The database includes an abstract for each award.
