Grants and Contracts

The Minneapolis Medical Research Foundation Office of Grants and Contracts provides researchers and sponsors with efficient, effective and convenient support services for pre-and post-award administration of research projects, and provides funding agencies with single-source access to HCMC researchers and technology.

Pre-award services include assistance with identification of funding sources and proposal preparation, reviewing, approving and submitting proposals, and negotiating and accepting grant awards and contracts.

Post-award services include industry and government sponsor relations, subcontracting, compliance assurance, assistance with expenditure management, program close-out and audit, and institutional reporting.

In addition to its pre-and post-award functions, the Office of Grants and Contracts provides training in grant and contract management for investigators, research personnel and department administrators and facilitates communication between all institutional units involved in research.
