Voucher Program
All voucher funds have been awarded for the 2023-2024 grant cycle. Please check back late summer/early autumn 2024 for the next voucher application period (2024-2025) to open.
To help advance translational research, the CTSI awards vouchers to provide funding support for investigators who require assistance from an Ohio State or a Nationwide Children’s Hospital core service to enable preliminary work and generate data for new or ongoing projects. Vouchers may also be used to secure fee-based core services for expert consultation services with the ultimate goal of furthering clinical and translational research. These awards are intended to be used on projects that are ready for services immediately (“just in time” data).
The CTSI will award vouchers to Ohio State and Nationwide Children's Hospital investigators worth up to $3,000 to facilitate innovative research, and up to $5,000 for new collaborations of projects involving researchers from two different colleges or institutions.
