Dear Colleagues,
The Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor has allocated $1 million in funding for a pilot Interim COVID-19 Research Recovery Program (ICRRP) as an investment in faculty research/creative activity.
The ICRRP aims to support recovery of research/creative activity that was significantly impacted by COVID-19 for assistant and associate rank faculty (Professor, Professor In Residence, Professor of Clinical X, and Professor of Teaching series).
Applicants can choose from two funding proposal deadlines: September 20, 2021 and January 14, 2022, with funds equitably divided between the two.
The full description of the Interim COVID-19 Research Recovery Program (ICRRP) along with FAQs are available at: https://ap.uci.edu/covid19/icrrp/. The application form (UCI-AP-ICRRP) can be found at: https://ap.uci.edu/files/2022/09/UCI-AP-ICRRP.pdf.
Should you have questions, please contact Melissa Aguirre, Senior Academic Personnel Analyst, m.aguirre@uci.edu.
Sincerely,
Diane K. O’Dowd
Vice Provost for Academic Personnel
