About the Resource Allocation Program (RAP) The goal of the Resource Allocation Program (RAP) is to make applying for intramural funding at UCSF as easy as possible. The Clinical & Translational Science Institute's Strategic Opportunities Support Center (CTSI-SOS), the UCSF-GIVI Center for AIDS Research (CFAR), the AIDS Research Institute at the University of California San Francisco (ARI), the School of Medicine's REAC Committee, the Cancer Center's Clinical Investigator Research Program (CIRP) and the National Center of Excellence in Women's Health (NCOE), are combining their application and review processes. This collaborative approach, catalyzed by CTSI, has led to a common application and a common deadline for these intramural programs. In addition, the review process will be improved by drawing from a larger pool of reviewers, leading to a better match between the reviewer's expertise and the subject of a proposal. Based on the reviews, each funding agency will choose to fund those proposals most aligned with programmatic goals. The Resource Allocation Program (RAP) looks forward to adding more funding agencies to the mix. We are also seeking faculty members with a diverse range of expertise for our review committees. If you are interested in contributing your expertise to this UCSF-wide initiative, please contact us!
