In response to funding opportunities created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA), UAB established 12 Stimulus Working Groups to develop resources for research, education and service efforts and to develop Web pages to assist in competing in priority funding areas.

The ARRA Funding Initiatives Web site, www.uab.edu/stimulus, is a repository for information regarding federal and the State of Alabama funding opportunities. Use a BlazerID and strong password to login.

Additional UAB-specific information can be found at the Office of Grants and Contracts Administration Web site. Every effort will be made to ensure information on these sites is current, but researchers are reminded that the definitive sites for ARRA opportunities are the funding agency sites.

As of April 29, UAB investigators had submitted 364 grant applications in response to Stimulus Package funding opportunities.
