Proposal Development
The OVPR provides expert support to investigators to develop compelling and rigorous proposals. Once you have identified a funding source, you can get started on an effective and on-time proposal.
Grantsmanship Services
Timing: Request grant writing support at least 3 weeks before the sponsor deadline.
OVPR Research Development provides expert guidance and services for investigators working on proposals. The earlier you reach out, the more comprehensive support you can receive. Tufts Clinical Translational Science Institute also offers study design and proposal support.
Submission Process
Timing: Completed proposals are due the Central Pre-Award Office 5 business days before the deadline.
All applications for sponsored funding must be reviewed by the The Central Pre-Award Office prior to submission and the Central Pre-Award office is the only entity authorized by Tufts to sign proposals for sponsored projects and accept awards on behalf of the University.
