GGP Announces Changes and Call for 07-08 Fellows

GGP Exceeds $100 Million Mark, Announces a New Home Office and Reduced Fees, and Seeks Applications for Next Session

As of 2007, the Grant Generating Project (GGP) fellowship will be based at Virginia Commonwealth University (VCU) Department of Family Medicine, as Daniel Longo, ScD, moves to VCU as of March 1 to become professor of family medicine, director of research, and co-director of ACORN, the Virginia-based practice-based research network. This will allow this valuable grantsmanship training to be more easily within reach of those who need it. The GGP has resulted in the generation of $102 million in grant awards by participating fellows over the life of the program. The GGP is sponsored by NAPCRG, the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine, and the College of Family Physicians of Canada. The yearlong GGP "fellowship without walls" provides hands-on training through a series of workshops, along with individual consultation and mentoring, while fellows actually work on a grant for submission.

Applications for the 2007-2008 program will be accepted beginning in March of 2007 and will be due by June 30, 2007. Information is available now on the VCU Web site/research section here, as well as at the UMC Web site. Prospective fellows may e-mail Dr Longo and request to receive information on the 2007-2008 fellowship as it becomes available.
