The Duke Institute for Health Innovation (DIHI) is pleased to announce the next emerging ideas and innovation funding cycle. Proposed innovation projects should address actual and important problems encountered by care providers, patients and their loved ones in our clinical enterprise and represent urgent health challenges nationally.

For the upcoming funding cycle, priority will be given to ideas aligned with the thematic area: Automation to enhance healthcare operational efficiency.

Applications are open to faculty, staff, trainees and students of Duke University and Duke University Health System and can be submitted from Monday, September 19, 2022 through 11:59PM Sunday, October 23, 2022.  All proposals are required to have a DUHS operational lead as a cosponsor to be accepted for review. If the DIHI team can be of any assistance in the formulation of ideas or connections, please contact Suresh Balu. We look forward to your innovative solutions.
