Non-ESRI-Sponsored Grants
2005 NLM Translational Informatics Grants

Deadlines to apply: June 1, and October 1, 2005

Up to $4 million of the National Library of Medicine (NLM) funds for Translational Informatics grants are available in fiscal year 2005. NLM Translational Informatics grants emphasize the use of information technology to bring usable, useful health-related information to end users. Computers and networks are the basis of information systems that provide health professionals, researchers, educators, students, and consumers with time- and place-independent access to the published biomedical knowledge, clinical files and images, and scientific databases they need. They also provide the ability to communicate with patients, health administrators, and colleagues around the world. NLM defines the term "information system" broadly to include equipment, software, knowledge resources and services, and human expertise.

GIS can be a strong tool in many of the allowable grant areas such as improving the usability of interfaces and digital resources.

For additional information about GIS solutions for this grant, please contact ESRI's grant coordinator.
