Definitions – Investigator Initiated Clinical Trials Workflow

OSP:

Please contact the Office of Sponsored Programs as soon as you begin to consider submitting a grant proposal. Developing a successful application requires significant time and preparation. The office is here to help ease the administrative burden and reduce errors that may potentially remove your proposal from consideration by a sponsor.

Principal Investigators (PI) should complete the Notification of Intent to Submit form no later than 10 business days before the sponsor deadline. Early notification is strongly recommended. Before notification can occur, the PI should reach out to the appropriate Academic Vice Chair to discuss the proposed project and potential ramifications for GHS.

To assist you with the process, we have compiled information necessary to complete your grant proposal. Visit our Grant Proposal Information page for institutional information as well as administrative and fiscal contacts for GHS.

Additionally, you may access other materials necessary for submitting a grant proposal by visiting our Forms & Policies page.
