Government and foundation grants are often the first mechanisms available to entrepreneurs to establish the validity of their research programs and to demonstrate feasibility of a novel approach. However, like many early stage projects in drug discovery, expert medicinal chemistry is often required to transform a biological concept into a project with future drug development potential. Provid has a track record of successful NIH grants and contracts and foundation funding for projects originating in Provid’s own internal programs as well as those from academic groups and small companies.
The biological and chemistry concepts elaborated in a grant proposal also must be of exceptional merit to be funded in the current environment. Provid has the experience and capability to serve as PI or a collaborator on grant proposals for NIH including SBIR/STTR and R01, with drug discovery chemistry that is judged to be of high quality by NIH reviewers.
