CSDE's Center Grant renewed for 2007-2012!

Center Grant The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) has awarded CSDE a 5-year competitive renewal of its center grant under the Population Research Infrastructure Program. The center grant provides essential funding for CSDE staff and services, and this success ensures the continuation of our highly-regarded technical and administrative support for research in demography and public health at the University of Washington and our regional affiliates. Over the next year, we are planning to expand those services to include staff expertise in spatial analysis and a developmental program that will provide seed grants and support for working groups.

Federal research infrastructure funding involves fierce competition over a budget that has remained fixed over time. CSDE's excellent review panel score and award level are tributes to the stature of our affiliates and the significance of their research ("one of the strongest population groups in the country" says the NICHD review summary), the skills and effectiveness of our staff, and the stalwart support of CSDE and population research by the College and the University.
