For Researchers



COMPLIANCE

LIU adheres and complies with Federal and sponsor regulations, safety, human subjects protections and implementation of policies and procedures designed to promote a healthy and safe research enterprise. Questions about IRB, IACUC and Responsible Conduct of Research or other training should be directed to Theresa Faughnan.


FIND FUNDING

The Research & International Office offers on-line search tools to assist faculty, students and staff to access and search for funding. Faculty can look for funding from an LIU networked computer through SPIN. Faculty may also search federal funding sources directly through www.grants.gov. The Research & International Office will assist you to interpret results and match your ideas to the funding agency. Questions about preparing to write a competitive proposal should be sent to Alan Gertler or Jared Littman.


SUBMITTING A PROPOSAL

LIU has a process for submitting a proposal. The proposal chart outlines this process and faculty should pay careful attention to deadlines and timelines to ensure a competitive submission. Questions about proposal submission should be sent to Angela Stark or Jared Littman.
