NIH Director’s New Innovator Award – Funding opportunities for unusually creative early stage investigators
Elizabeth Seckel, M.A., is the Director of Strategic Research Development for Cardiovascular Medicine. She is also part of the Route to Getting Grants Planning Committee since 2019.
Dr. Daniel Herschlag, Ph.D., is a Professor of Biochemistry and, by courtesy, of Chemical Engineering. The overarching goal of his research is to understand the fundamental behavior of RNA and proteins and, in turn, how these behaviors determine and impact biology and how it has evolved. His lab takes an interdisciplinary approach, spanning and integrating physics, chemistry and biology, and employing a wide range of techniques.
Dr. Serena Sanulli, Ph.D., is the Assistant Professor of Genetics. Dr. Sanulli’s lab studies genome organization across length and time scales with the long-term goal to understand how cells leverage the diverse biophysical properties of chromatin to regulate genome functions. She is the recipient of the Independent Postdoctoral Fellow Award from the program for Breakthrough Biomedical Research, the McCormick and Gabilan Faculty Fellowship, and she was recently named a Searle Scholar.
Serena Sanulli is named NIH Director’s New Innovator Award Recipient.
Route to Getting Grants (R2G2) is specially designed for junior faculty at Stanford. Sessions cover all aspects of grant writing, delivered through panel sessions, workshops and focused talks. R2G2 also provides unique networking opportunities, enabling cross faculty collaborations and multidisciplinary partnerships. R2G2 ensures that junior faculty have all the tools and strategies to lead them to grant success and on to independent research careers.
