Understanding COVID-19 Research and Development Funding Opportunities

On Monday, March 30, we presented a webinar summarizing current and upcoming federal funding opportunities, through agencies including BARDA, the NIH, and DoD, related to addressing COVID19 and finding timely scientific solutions. The recording of that session is available here for participants who would like to review it or those who were unable to join the live broadcast.

The spread of COVID-19 demonstrates the magnitude of the threat infectious diseases pose to our domestic and global community. There is a critical need for novel solutions to treat, prevent, and contain COVID19 as well as future emerging threats.

The Conafay Group works closely with industry, academia, and others to advance their medical research efforts with the federal government. We have observed that many groups have important solutions to offer, but struggle to know what opportunities are the best for them, which agencies are seeking what kinds of solutions, in what time frame, and how to engage with those agencies. The objective of this webinar was to provide a clearer understanding of these opportunities and as well as an idea of what to expect in the future.
