SOUTH KINGSTOWN, RI — Researchers from the University of Rhode Island will share more than $165,000 in funding from the Rhode Island Foundation to promote medical research projects.
According to the Rhode Island Foundation, the grants are designed to help early-career researchers advance projects to the point where they are competitive for national funding. With this round of grants, the foundation has awarded more than $5.7 million since 1997.
“Together with our visionary donors, we are providing the crucial source of early funding that enables local researchers to pursue promising medical advances,” Rhode Island Foundation President David Cicilline said. “Our hope is that their successes will lead to substantial new investments in the state’s research sector that will grow our economy and improve the health of Rhode Islanders.”
