To address short- and long-term helium shortages, there is a need for new and innovative helium alternative technology. To that end, we invite researchers at the University of Utah to apply for seed grant funding (up to $35,000) to develop helium alternative technology.
Applications will be accepted on a rolling basis until 11:59pm on Friday, September 30, 2022. Applications will be accepted via InfoReady. Faculty members who hold at least a .50 FTE appointment are eligible to apply.
Application Requirements
- Proposal Narrative (up to 1.0 page max): The proposal narrative must be limited to one single-spaced page with a font size of 12 points. The narrative must include:
- Project goals or research questions/aims, plan of action or research methods, planned outcomes, and plan for dissemination.
- Up to 10 keywords that help identify the key objectives, disciplines, research types,
and associated departments of the proposal.
Example: DEI, global, air quality, interview research, and junior faculty. - Extramural Funding Plan (up to 1.0 page max): All applicants must submit a plan for identifying and applying to external funding as result of the award.

that the proposed project will be funded by the sponsor and ensure that a diversity
of projects and disciplines are selected from different units on campus.
