Now in its fourth year, the CHER Institute is proud to offer a program aiming to enhance the readiness of early career faculty at minority-serving institutions (MSIs) to conduct community-based, social and health behavior research and to increase their representation among National Institutes of Health (NIH)-funded investigators.

This past June, CHER Institute moved to an online format: In previous years, faculty from across the U.S. would convene at California State University, Long Beach (CSULB) to participate in the six-day, intensive research training experience. Due to concerns over COVID-19, the 2020 CHER Institute adapted to a different model. Because the safety of all participants is important to us, the 2020 CHER Institute was held in a virtual space.

Participants still received mentorship by a team of nationally-recognized social and health behavior research experts, including webinars to provide additional training to faculty participants and others who are interested in health equity research. This year our team created web portals and used Zoom seminars and breakout rooms to achieve the same goals. 



For researchers pursuing external funding, the Center for Social Science Scholarship maintains a list of general social science RFPs as well as those specific to COVID-19.  More information is also available here.

For assistance with proposal preparation and submissions:  Social science PIs generally obtain pre-award and post-grant management assistance from MIPAR. To set up an appointment, email mipar_info@umbc.edu. For faculty submitting proposals to foundations, please consult Bruce Lyons in UMBC’s Office of Institutional Advancement.
