      <div dir="ltr">Good morning,
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>The California State University Program for Education and
          Research in Biotechnology (CSUPERB) is announcing an open call
          for proposals for its COVID-19 Post Pandemic Faculty Support
          Program. </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>CSUPERB aims to assist tenured and tenure-track Assistant
          and Associate CSU Professors whose research programs have been
          explicitly disrupted by the COVID-19 pandemic through the loss
          of research progress and/or student researchers that will not
          be returning to the lab post-pandemic. This program has a
          maximum budget of $7,500 and has an initial deadline of
          September 15, 2021, with subsequent deadlines on the 15th of
          each following month until the program budget of $152,310 is
          exhausted.<br>
          <br>
          The Request for Proposals (RFP) includes all contextual
          information, review criteria, eligibility requirements, and
          submission link for the program and can be found on the
          CSUPERB home page at <a href="https://www.calstate.edu/csuperb" target="_blank"><font size="4">https://www.calstate.edu/csuperb</font></a>.
           </div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>CSUPERB will provide funding for up to 3 WTU of faculty
          time or for summer salary, to a combined maximum of $7,500
          (including fringe benefits). Impacted faculty must use
          supported effort to help restart stalled research programs,
          and can include the need to train replacement student
          researchers for vacated positions resulting from the COVID-19
          related sudden shutdown of campus research programs. Funds
          must be used for faculty release time or compensation and may
          not be used for supplies or direct student payments. Details
          on the exact methodology for using the funds will be
          determined between the faculty member and their department or
          college administration and within CSU and individual campus
          faculty reimbursement policies.<br>

        <div><br>

        <div>CSUPERB defines biotechnology as a fusion of biology and
          technology.  The Biotechnology Industry Organization (BIO)
          lists biotechnology examples. CSUPERB explicitly adds to the
          list health IT and medical device research and development.
          CSUPERB welcomes and encourages applications from CSU faculty
          in all disciplines related to the current practice of
          biotechnology, including but not limited to life sciences,
          physical sciences, clinical sciences, math, computer science,
          agricultural science, engineering, and/or business.</div>
        <div><br>
        </div>
        <div>Please forward this announcement to all faculty involved in
          biotechnology education and research on your campus.  If you
          have any questions, please contact the program office at <a href="mailto:csuperb@sdsu.edu" target="_blank">csuperb@sdsu.edu</a>.<br>
