SPARC Official Launch

Are you or do you know a researcher looking for new sources of research support? Are you interested in being part of research teams that span the University and connect with organizations doing important work outside the U? Are you a grant administrator looking for support for large and complex grant proposals?  If so, please join us Tuesday, January 29, 2019 at McNamara Alumni Center (UMTC) to officially launch University of Minnesota’s Strategic Partnerships and Research Collaborative (SPARC), a new research service and innovation hub created to help multidisciplinary teams from across the University submit and execute complex grant proposals, particularly those offered by nontraditional funding agencies and requiring external partners. For UMN Faculty and Staff.
