Reaching Across the Causeway Award
By School of Veterinary Medicine and School of Medicine

Together the Associate Dean of Research of the School of Veterinary Medicine, Vice Dean for Research of the School of Medicine, the UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center, and the UC Davis Clinical and Translational Science Center have come together to incentivize collaborative science by new research teams that seek bold ideas and open new areas of investigation between the schools. The program will provide one year of support for six multi-school (SOM/SVM) department teams to fund planning, preparation, and submission of team-based applications.

Key Campus Units

Foundation and Corporate Engagement - A CFR (corporate and foundation relations) central service unit that works with all campus investigators to prepare and submit foundation or corporate grant proposals, building strategy to engage with and outreach to foundations and corporations, and relationships management support. The development office collaborates with all schools, departments, and units. SVM Contact: Beverly Parayno

Limited Submissions Office - A limited submission is a funding opportunity in which the sponsor imposes a limit on the number of applications/proposals that an institution can submit. When this happens, the Limited Submission Program promotes an internal deadline for either Expressions of Interest (EOIs) or preproposals–depending on the anticipated interest–then coordinates an internal competition to determine which project(s) will move forward to the sponsor. This process ensures that our institution only submits the allowable number of proposals to the sponsor. For questions about Limited Submissions, please contact limsubmissions@ucdavis.edu.

National and International Faculty Awards - Led by Gloria Hayes, the office collaborates with all UC Davis academic units in the development of national and international, non-grant faculty award nominations.

Proposal Development Services - Offers extensive services and resources to UC Davis researchers to assist in the development and submission of extramural funding proposals, early career research support, project management for large team grants, and a toolbox with templates, training opportunities, and resources to facilitate successful proposals.

Sponsored Programs - Responsible for the effective and timely handling of all research proposals, as well as preparing, interpreting, negotiating, and accepting awards/agreements on behalf of the Regents for projects funded by federal and state agencies, foundations, and other public and private sources.

Technology Transfer - Provides services that connect research to the marketplace and is focused specifically on protecting and commercializing intellectual property as well as fostering entrepreneurship within the campus community.

Venture Catalyst - Facilitates the translation of UC Davis research and technology to real-world application by driving the development of new UC Davis-associated ventures through collaborations, programmatic activities and outreach efforts.
