NoVa Node Faculty Research Project Profiles
Funded Research
CCI NoVa Node embraces a philosophy of providing seed funding for foundational research with the intent that, as that research matures, our faculty are able to leverage that investment to compete for larger, extramural funding opportunities.
Since 2019, we've provided approximately $4.5 million for funded research, in addition to indirect support provided through initiatives such as Undergraduate Reseach Program. NoVa Node affiliated researchers have used this support as a springboard, procuring over $70.2 million to-date.
