Profile for Funding Opportunity Database

Sponsored Research Services subscribes to comprehensive databases maintained by InfoEd International, a company dedicated to providing resources to assist researchers in their efforts to obtain extramural funding.

GENIUS (Global Expertise Network for Industry, Universities and Scholars) serves as a searchable registry of institutional talent and expertise for use in industry and academia. A GENIUS database profile is also used for SMARTS matching.

SPIN (Sponsored Programs Information Network) includes information on funding opportunities from federal, state, foundation, and other types of sponsors. The database is updated daily.

SMARTS (SPIN Matching and Research Transmittal System) is InfoEd's electronic notification system for funding opportunity information. When the information in a funding opportunity matches a profile in the GENIUS database, an e-mail message is sent to the faculty or staff member.

Using this form, we will create a basic GENIUS/SMARTS profile for you that will enable you to receive funding opportunity notifications based on keyword matching. See page 2 of this form for information on keywords.

You can create or edit your profile online at

We encourage you to login and update/edit your profile information, narrow or broaden your search criteria, and fill in additional details about yourself that collaborators may be searching for.
