NIDUS II Pilot Grant Collaborative Working Groups and Awards

Collaborative Working Groups and Awards

Why form a collaborative group?

The NIDUS II team hopes that interdisciplinary collaborative teams can create innovative and impactful proposals for delirium research. In these collaborative working groups, investigators interact with like-minded scientists who work in related areas. The ideal is that these collaborations will advance ideas and open new arenas for delirium research.
