The Whole Communities–Whole Health Research Symposium will highlight community-engaged research from across campus and advances from our ongoing longitudinal cohort study on health and wellness in the Del Valle area.
The Whole Communities–Whole Health (WCWH) research grand challenge invites UT-Austin faculty and staff with Principal Investigator (PI) status to compete in a flash funding competition that is part of this year’s research showcase. Participants in this program will have three hours to prepare and submit a grant proposal. The purpose of the flash funding competition is to facilitate interdisciplinary connections and support projects that can advance research and practice in collaboration with WCWH researchers. The competition will be held between 9:00 AM and 12:00 PM on February 7, 2025. Funding announcements will be made at the end of the day’s symposium. Interdisciplinary projects and community partnerships are encouraged to help meet the goals of this program to facilitate new research and community connections. Research proposals that intend to utilize current WCWH data are highly encouraged. Single PI proposals will not be accepted. Research teams will be limited to four Co-PIs/Co-Investigators, and external or community partners are allowed when partnering with a UT PI.
