RE: 2008 Academic Federation Research Grant Program
    Innovative Developmental Awards

I am pleased to announce the fourth annual Call for Applications for 
the Academic Federation Research Grant Program - Innovative 
Developmental Awards (IDAs).  These awards provide support for AF 
members in research titles to conduct exploratory research in new 
areas for which they currently have insufficient preliminary data 
for a competitive grant application to extramural sources.  Research 
proposed in IDA applications may be formative in nature.  Proposals 
should be creative, intellectually exciting, and show clear promise 
to yield findings that could serve as the basis for a well-defined 
future research application.

Based on total funds available this year for the program ($50,000), 
it is expected that there will be 5-7 awards ranging from $3,000 to 
$10,000 each.  The 2008 CALL FOR APPLICATIONS and relevant documents 
can be found at http://academicfederation.ucdavis.edu/awards.cfm.  

If you have questions or need additional information about this 
award, please contact Kimberly Pulliam at (530) 752-4918 or via 
email at kapulliam@ucdavis.edu.

The deadline for applications is 11:59 p.m. on Friday, April 18, 2008. 

Michael Johnson, Chair
Academic Federation Committee on Research
