Northwestern Pepper Center
Analytics Core Voucher
Competitive vouchers of up to $2500 will be awarded to support statistical analysis (e.g. statistical programming in R, SAS, or Stata; database design using REDCap) for projects that contribute to the advancement of aging-related research.
Vouchers will initially cover up to 20 hours of statistical analyst time via the Biostatistics Collaboration Center (BCC), but in the future may be expanded to cover qualitative analyses (e.g., clarifying relevant qualitative methods, creation and revision of interview guides, trained focus group moderator or interviewer support, trained qualitative analyst support).

Pilot/Exploratory Studies
PES awards are equivalent to an NIH R03, with funding of $100,000 in direct costs over two years, designed to gather preliminary data in support of a federal grant (K or R) submission. Awardees receive guidance and mentorship from our Research Education Core and projects receive additional ‘in-kind’ support from our innovative Resource Cores (Design Core, Measurement Core, Analytics Core).

NUCATS KL2 Multidisciplinary Career Development Program
NUCATS Voucher and Pilot Programs
The NUCATS Voucher and Pilot Programs seek to accelerate research by providing rapid, targeted funding to address small but critical gaps in clinical and translational research work. These funds are particularly intended for projects with the potential for strong clinical or translational research in a short timeframe, junior faculty who have not yet established a significant funding base, projects involving critical steps in the device and drug development pathway and projects that address a critical need in translational science that are too small to be suitable for conventional funding. They’re also designed for projects involving research dissemination and implementation in community and practice settings.
