$400,000 in funding is available to support high-risk ideas and innovations addressing the needs of critically ill and injured children.

Mark Kahn and the Weil Institute for Critical Care Research and Innovation at the University of Michigan are releasing an RFP in December 2022 for research into innovative solutions in pediatric critical care. We are asking teams to develop diagnostic, device, therapeutic, or health information technology solutions that address current gaps in the monitoring, diagnosis and treatment of critically ill and/or injured children.

NOTE: To be considered for funding, you and/or a team member must attend the December 8 kickoff. For the most advantageous opportunities to network and learn more about the Grand Challenge process from peers and leadership, we strongly encourage you to attend in-person if able. The kickoff will follow all safety protocols as determined by Michigan Medicine at the time of the event.
