CT3N Pilot Grants

The competition for the 2023 CT3N pilot grants is now open.  


The CT3N invites PENN and CHOP researchers to submit competitive proposals for Pilot Grants by Monday, August 14, 2023The goal of these Pilot Grants is to support early‐stage experimental preclinical studies in targeted therapeutics and thus assist investigators in obtaining key data to seek extramural funding. Proposals will be evaluated based on their relevance to CT3N’s areas of interest, the interdisciplinary and collaborative character (including use of PENN and CHOP core facilities, such as for instance the Chemical and Nanoparticle Synthesis Core), and innovation and translational potential. The grants will be for $50,000 for one year, starting October 16, 2023.
