About CEEH Pilot Projects
The CEEH Pilot Research Project Program provides initial support for investigators to establish novel lines of research relevant to the mission of the NIEHS & CEEH. The program promotes exploration of possible innovative directions representing a significant departure from ongoing funded research for established investigators in environmental health sciences. Investigators from other areas of endeavor are encouraged to apply their expertise to environmental health research.
CEEH pilot projects have provided data for numerous successful grant applications. For example, in 2005 two recipients of 2004-2005 pilot project grants were awarded multi-year R01 grants totaling $3,340,000.
