Translational Research Grant (TRG) Program

North Carolina Biotechnology Center

The Translational Research Grant (TRG) program funds projects that explore commercial applications or initiate the early commercial development of university-held life sciences inventions. The technology must have the potential to solve a real-world problem as a commercial product in the life sciences sector.

Goals of the TRG program:

Transform basic research discoveries into product-focused translational research development
Generate data that addresses important product development milestones, addresses the concerns of potential licensees or investors, or otherwise de-risks the technology for a specific commercial application
Enable strategic “go/no-go” decision-making regarding further technology development or pursuit of intellectual property protection
Enable technology licensing efforts by the university
Establish goal-oriented partnerships between university scientists, product development professionals and key stakeholders

Eligibility Requirements

Eligible Institutions
Proposals may be submitted by any North Carolina university or non-profit research organization.
⊗ Projects that appear to be subsidized R&D for any commercial entity may be administratively declined. Direct
funding of R&D expenses for commercial firms, except contracted services, even if they have ties to NC-based
universities and research institutions, is not consistent with the objectives of the program.
Principal Investigator Eligibility
At the time of submission, the Principal Investigator (PI) must hold a full-time, tenure-track or tenured faculty
appointment, or an appointment as full-time research faculty with a dedicated independent lab at the applicant
institution, or an equivalent faculty designation in a medical/professional school.
⊗ The PI may not have more than two active awards from the North Carolina Biotechnology Center at the same
time.
Intellectual Property Eligibility
Eligible projects support inventions that, at a minimum, have been disclosed to the university’s technology
transfer office at the time of application.
The applicant must attest that the IP rights are assigned to the applicant’s institution and have not been
committed through license or option to license to any third party at the time of application
