The UT One Health Initiative has launched its second seed grant competition. The goal of the program is to create transdisciplinary synergies among faculty, staff, students, and external collaborators that embrace a One Health approach to investigations. Several small awards (up to $40,000) are available, including one exploring healthy, living shorelines on the Tennessee River (in partnership with Tennessee RiverLine) and one globally-focused award addressing one or more of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (in partnership with UT’s Smith Center for International Sustainable Agriculture and the Center for Global Engagement).

Proposals are due by 11:59pm Eastern on 1 February 2022. More information is available below; applications can be submitted via InfoReady: https://tennessee.infoready4.com/#competitionDetail/1851622.
