The Yale Climate Change and Health Initiative seeks proposals for innovative pilot research projects focused on climate change and health. Potential research areas include, but are not limited to, health effects of heat waves; occupational heat stress; cardiovascular and respiratory health effects of climate change; interactions between climate change and air pollution; relationships between climate change and infectious or other environmentally-transmitted diseases; climate change and food insecurity; mental health effects of natural disasters; climate refugee health; social justice in relation to climate change and health; interplay between climate change and human exposure to chemical contaminants; health co-benefits of climate change mitigation; and adaptation strategies to minimize adverse health effects of climate change. - Quantitative Neuroscience with Magnetic Resonance (QNMR) Core Center at Yale – NIH: P30 NS052519
Pilot Study Program for MR-Based Neuroscience Research in Small Animals
Supports innovative, investigator-initiated, basic neuroscience research utilizing any of the Cores. Small grants providing resources for each of the Cores, including scanner time and staff support, may be awarded. The total award amount is dependent on the project. The QNMR Core Center will support new research projects but will not supplement ongoing studies or provide bridge funding. Priority is given to projects from junior independent scientists and/or projects describing collaborations between two (or more) investigators.
