About Pilot Time

CAMRI is supported by user fees: PIs receive grants or contracts and then pay CAMRI for MR scanner time on a fee for service basis. Grant proposals typically require preliminary data, leading to a dilemma in which existing funding is required to obtain new funding. To encourage new new investigators and projects, CAMRI awards no-cost pilot time at the sole discretion of the Academic Director. The purpose of the pilot time awards is to allow for the collection of preliminary data for grant applications that will then be used to pay for scan time at CAMRI. A brief application is required, consisting of the following:

  1. PI name and NIH-format biosketch or full CV
  2. Name of project and scientific explanation
  3. Number of scanner hours requested
  4. Duration of project
  5. Draft of NIH-format specific aims page
  6. Information about funding agency and mechanism (e.g. NIH R21; URL of RFA if non-NIH)

Before data collection can begin, the PI must attend all necessary training and submit required documentation, including an IRB-approved protocol and consent form. Submitted completed applications or questions to camri@bcm.edu
