Applications for Seed Grants 2025 is closed!

The Seed Grants 2025 has been launched to nurture early-stage, faculty-driven research with the potential to inform programs, influence policy, and strengthen health systems across the country. These competitive grants are designed to catalyze innovative and high-impact public health research. By supporting early-stage ideas, the program aims to generate preliminary or proof-of-concept evidence that can grow into larger, externally funded research projects and influence programs, policies, and health systems across the country.

The 2025 call for proposals focuses on four broad themes:
– Prevention and Management of Non-Communicable Diseases
– Prevention and Management of Infectious Diseases
– Maternal, Child & Adolescent Health
– Other Priority Areas (coming soon)

We warmly invite our adjunct faculty to apply and join us in catalyzing innovative research that shapes a healthier future for India.

The last date for submission of proposals is 30th October 2025, 5:00 PM (IST).
