Description:

These grants will address key synthetic chemistry and process research challenges whose solutions result in more efficient pharmaceutical process development and production.

Ignition Grants provide $40,000 for a 6-month research commitment; proposals can be on any new green chemistry/engineering research direction of relevance to the pharmaceutical industry. Four awards are available, providing ?ignition? funding for novel and innovative ideas that have the potential to provide sustainable solutions to chemistry and engineering problems relevant to the pharmaceutical industry from discovery to manufacturing. The goal is to provide researchers with initial funding to obtain preliminary results that may then be used by the researchers to help apply for funding from traditional funding agencies.

For international submissions, if there is no comparable office, submit a PDF of a letter signed by an appropriate university official recognizing the terms of the grant.
