Star-Friedman Challenge for Promising Scientific Research

The Star-Friedman Challenge provides seed funding to interdisciplinary high-risk, high-impact projects in the life, physical, and social sciences. This competition is open to ladder faculty members in the four participating schools (HMS, HSPH, FAS and SEAS). Ordinarily, awards will range from $80,000-$150,000. In truly exceptional circumstances, the committee may consider larger awards.
