The University of Louisville Research Foundation (ULRF) secured more than $153 million to support groundbreaking research in the 2021-2022 fiscal year. The organization received 844 awards for $153.8 million, which included $87.9 million from the federal government, $28.3 million from flow-through funds, $10.8 million from industry, $11.7 million from foundations, and $13.2 million from the Commonwealth of Kentucky. The funding supported both basic and applied research and work to advance understanding and education in health, engineering and more. Thanks to contributions from Humana, the Health Equity Innovation Hub was launched this fiscal year focusing on advancing health equity and improving health outcomes for marginalized populations in Louisville and communities around the world. Also, organizational funding helped implement the Christina Lee Brown Envirome Institute - New Vision of Health Campus, where study will focus on health as a shared community resource, incorporating environmental and cultural factors. Not only does ULRF excel at groundbreaking research, but also at the translation of that research into marketable commercial technologies with real-world impact. The University of Louisville is the only university in the country to be awarded a prestigious suite of commercialization grants, dubbed the 'superfecta': the Coulter Translational Partnership award, NSF I Corps Site program, the NIH Reach Hub, and the NSF AWARE: ACCESS award. These programs help get our innovative technologies to market, improving the way we work and live, such as our work to monitor employee engagement or the pioneering research in spinal cord injury that could help the paralyzed walk again. Our work also furthers economic priorities - for example, our Louisville Entrepreneurship Acceleration Programs support the local innovation economy and providing economic opportunity for the region. In this fiscal year, the organization also became a partner in the NSF Mid-South Innovation Corps (I-Corps) Hub, one of only 10 across the United States and part of the operational backbone of the NSF's National Innovation Network, which helps translate academic research for the marketplace. The Hubs are charged with providing experiential entrepreneurship training to researchers across all fields of science and engineering while working to build diverse and inclusive regional innovation ecosystems. The organization acquired funding for many new projects during the fiscal year, including: - Upgrading Infectious Disease Research Facilities at the University of Louisville; - Chromosome instability implications in metal-induced lung cancer; - Utility of Genomic Sequencing in Community Care Contexts; - 3D Bioprinting of Dual-Delivery Scaffolds for Bacterial Vaginosis; - Behavioral Health Workforce Education and Training Program & Behavioral Health Workforce Enhancement Program; - Systematic identification of cardiotoxic e-cigarette flavorants; - National Cybersecurity Teaching AcademyGeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$194.9MUniversity of Louisville Scholarships
