Event details

Date 20.07.2023
Category Call for proposal
Aim:  To gain a deeper mechanistic understanding of biological systems, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s Imaging program aims to visualize and measure them across biological scales and in their biological context. The Chan Zuckerberg Initiative (CZI) seeks to support one-year projects in the field of cryo-correlative light and electron microscopy (cryo-CLEM) labels to drive development of complete, general-purpose, intracellular imaging probes for cryo-CLEM. This grant program will advance the utility of cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET) of cells by providing information on specific aspects of cell function.  

Funding:       $165,000 total costs

Duration:      12 months
 *note: Proposed budgets should reflect the project scope. $15,000 USD direct costs of the proposed budget must be included as a budget item to support trainees working on the project, beyond personnel costs.

Eligibility: Applicants, PIs and Co-PIs, must hold a PhD, MD, or equivalent degree. Each application should have a minimum of one PI (Coordinating PI), but may designate up to two total PIs (one Coordinating PI and one Co-PI) ; see RFA for more details.

How to Apply: All applications must be completed and submitted through CZI’s online grants management portal at https://apply.chanzuckerberg.com. Please contact the Research Office for organization details and for assistance with the institutional approval form. The budget should include 15% overhead charges; please contact the Research Office with any budget questions. Final notifications will be sent in late October 2023.

Deadline:                                          20 July 2023 (5:00 pm PT)
