Grants and Contracts
SPIN
InfoEd's SPIN (Sponsored Programs Information Network) is the most widely used funding opportunity database in the world. Across the globe nearly 500 institutions subscribe to the Web-based search engine. Researchers at these institutions use SPIN as their one-stop-shop for identifying the latest grant programs. By aggregating sponsor information in one system, SPIN dramatically cuts search times and substantially increases the likelihood of positive results. Program information is presented in a standard format that allows investigators to readily compare opportunities.
- InfoEd tracks the funding programs (e.g. research grants; fellowships; publication support; sabbatical support; curriculum development; etc.) of over 6,000 government, private, and non-profit funding sources worldwide.
- Intuitive search engine allows users to query the database with either basic keyword or advanced Boolean searches.
- The SPIN service also includes SMARTS (The SPIN Matching And Research Transmittal Service). SMARTS is an automated alerts system that notifies investigators of relevant new programs that match their research interests.
- SPIN is integrated with InfoEd's Proposal Development module. With a single click, InfoEd can generate a new electronic proposal template that is pre-loaded with all of the relevant sponsor and program details from SPIN.
