Yohei Hisada, Ph.D. awarded SOM Boost funding award from the Dean’s office.

The Dean’s Office will provide proposal Mechanisms of coagulopathy and bleeding in acute promyelocytic leukemia with Boost funding. The Boost award will provide $25,000 to help sustain his project and obtain preliminary data during the resubmission and review process of R01 grant.

UNC School of Medicine (SOM) faculty are extremely successful in their efforts to obtain funding for their research, even though the funding climate has become increasingly competitive. In support of these efforts, the SOM Office of Research invites applications from faculty for Boost awards, which are designed to boost the chances of funding for an NIH grant (or similar) that has been reviewed favorably but needs additional revisions and preliminary data in order to be funded on resubmission.
