RE: KYNETIC

 

Happy New Year UK Innovators!

 

Do you have an idea for a product that could improve patient care or enhance human health?  KYNETIC offers proof-of-concept and product development grants for all types of health-related ideas.  Cycle 1 grants are for up to $50,000 per project to be used over 6 months. Projects are eligible for competitive renewal every 6 months, until a maximum of $200,000 per technology is reached.  In addition, product development, commercialization and entrepreneurship training is offered to all selected applicants.  Faculty, staff, trainees and students are eligible to apply.  

 

A pre-application is required by Saturday, February 15, 2020. Details and application forms are attached.

 

KYNETIC staff can answer questions about this RFA and assist you with various aspects of the pre-application preparation. We encourage informal inquiries about whether an idea or product would be suitable for this program. Email kynetic@l.uky.edu with questions or to set up an appointment to discuss the KYNETIC grant pre-application or your idea.
