Find Funding
Emory/Georgia TRAC Pilot Grants
The purpose of these pilot grants is to stimulate new research ideas, catalyze new research collaborations, provide resources for investigators to generate preliminary data to support external grant submissions, and attract established non-TB investigators to pursue multidisciplinary TB research. Application cycles open annually in order to award grants in the amount of $30,000 - $50,000.
We do not have an active Request for Funding Announcement at this time. We anticipate the next annoucement to be in Spring 2027, contingent on renewal of the Emory/GA TRAC NIH P30 parent award.
Bridge Funding
The expected outcomes of the TRAC Bridge Award are to provide support to help mitigate the effects of federal funding cuts on TB investigators through helping investigators complete and publish partially completed aims and sub-aims where feasible, pivot to new areas of TB-related research, develop new collaborations, and generate preliminary data for future grant applications.

Accelerator Awards
The goal of the Accelerator Awards is to efficiently provide small amounts of funding to fill key funding gaps for targeted specific needs and overcome barriers for critical research.
Please review the full RFA here.
Funds are intended to be used to:
- Support key research that will enable a new NIH application (F, K, or R series) or other externally funded grant expected to be submitted within the next 12 months and/or lead to a research publication.
- Gather data needed for a scored NIH application that is currently being revised for resubmission.
- Overcome an obstacle to currently funded research.
Deadlines – NEW
- For TRAC year 5, applications will be accepted on a rolling basis between October 19 – October 30, 2026.
- Applications will be administratively reviewed on a rolling basis.
- Awarded funds MUST be expended by February 28, 2027 (NO carry over of funds permitted).
