Join Partners HealthCare Innovation for the first session in the Innovation Symposium Series.
This session will focus on hands-on strategies for obtaining translational research funding from disease-focused foundations. Faculty and employees seeking increased insights into disease foundations and their support for translational research will find this session particularly helpful. This session will address the following questions:
• What gaps do foundations address?
• What is the impact of foundations?
• How do foundations measure success?
• How do I position my research around their highest priorities?
• How should I prepare when approaching a foundation?
Attendees will also learn about how these foundations are evolving over time, what their biggest challenges are and where they’ll be in 5-10 years.
A networkign session with refreshments and hors d'oeuvres will follow the session.
