In this space, we provide information on new funding opportunities that are relevant to the MBDH community. Unless otherwise specified, these opportunities are not affiliated with the Midwest Hub. Contact the funding agency directly with questions about the solicitations.
Contact the MBDH (info@midwestbigdatahub.org) if you would like to request a Letter of Collaboration or otherwise wish to include MBDH participation in a proposal. We encourage researchers from smaller institutions, including minority-serving institutions (MSIs), predominantly undergraduate institutions (PUIs), and tribal colleges and universities (TCUs), to contact us to assist with identifying potential partners for proposals.
