OVCR accepting submissions for Creativity Hubs award funds
The Office of the Vice Chancellor for Research (OVCR) is dedicated to creating a culture and ecosystem to support translation of discoveries and knowledge into tangible impact and solutions that solve the biggest challenges facing our state and beyond.
The OVCR Creativity Hubs program is the University's vehicle to focus and accelerate the efforts of teams to pose new questions that challenge prevailing wisdom in current approaches, create the foundation for new fields of inquiry, and test innovations to resolve major roadblocks in existing practice.
OVCR is seeking Concept Vision submissions that speak to four areas: the major problem as the team defines it, the current state of practice, your proposed solution, and the proposed team, with an emphasis on the impact of the proposed work and next steps post-award. OVCR wants to know what you are on the brink of solving and how pilot funds will provide the proof of principle to leverage your research or scholarship for real-world impact.
