Seed Grant Requests for Proposals
DST SPARK & LAUNCH
Duke’s Office of Research and Innovation (OR&I) supports DST seed grant opportunities, providing funding for early and mid-career faculty (SPARK) and collaborative grants for faculty at any level (LAUNCH) to pursue novel research ideas that may be difficult to fund from other sources. These seed grants aim to enhance the creativity and scholarship of Duke's faculty, ultimately leading to groundbreaking discoveries and innovative solutions to today's challenges.
We are excited to announce the winners of the 2024 - 2025 SPARK and LAUNCH seed grants!
OR&I EXPLORE
In addition, in 2024 OR&I opened a second year of its EXPLORE seed grant, focused on the qualitative, interpretive, and creative methods in humanities, arts, and social sciences. This opportunity is focused on early and mid-career faculty.
We are excited to announce the winners of the 2024 - 2025 EXPLORE seed grants!
