As we begin a new year, the UAB Comprehensive Diabetes Center has collated key conference and grant submission dates for 2023.
Conferences are an opportunity for faculty, staff, and trainees to extend their professional network, continue learning, and stay up to date with trending research areas. For trainees that intend to present their research, travel awards are often available.
There are several diabetes research funding opportunities across grant agencies as well as foundations and associations. The information below is not an exhaustive list, and diabetes researchers are still encouraged to search beyond these high-level submission dates.

Plus, the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) has several diabetes-related funding opportunities. These have varying submission deadlines and requirements for researchers.
Other funding opportunities to be aware of include the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF) grant center as well as the current funding opportunities with the American Diabetes Association.
The UCDC encourages researchers to stay in tune with the research funding pages of these organizations as well as reminder messaging from the UCDC and the Diabetes Research Center (DRC) at UAB. For more information and updates from the UCDC, subscribe to the monthly newsletter.
