DESCRIPTION

DEPARTMENT OVERVIEW:

The Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation (VCRI) organization supports, facilitates and promotes the world-class research enterprise at UC San Diego by: a) providing essential services and resources that enhance research and other creative endeavors; b) enabling partnerships and collaborations among researchers at UC San Diego and between UC San Diego and government, industry, and other research enterprises; c) developing infrastructure and policy that promote innovation, an entrepreneurial culture, communication, and compliance for the UC San Diego research enterprise; and d) promoting research excellence by embedding the values of equity, diversity, and inclusion at the core of everything we do.

The organization fosters research across disciplines by enhancing the research experience through effective stewardship of resources, policies, compliance and expertise, and by developing tools and educational programs as the responsible steward of the campus research enterprise. The Office of Research Affairs (ORA) is the central VCRI office with direct oversight for all VCRI operational, administrative and public relations/communication functions and for core units including Research Scholars, Research Ethics, Government Research Relations, Research Initiatives, Research Development, International Outreach, and multi-disciplinary campus research (Organized Research Units). Other enterprise-wide research support departments under the Vice Chancellor for Research and Innovation include Contract and Grant Administration, Innovation and Commercialization, Research Compliance and Integrity (including IACUC, Export Control, Conflict of Interest), the Animal Care Program, and the VCRI Service Core.

POSITION OVERVIEW:

Fulfills primary responsibility for a specific area of research within a broader research grant program initiative.

The incumbent is a member of the Research Development (RD) team, an integrated, collaborative team that helps researchers find and pursue funding opportunities, collaborate effectively, produce compelling proposals, and compete more successfully for research funding. The RD team prioritizes support for the development of large, complex, interdisciplinary research proposals, but also supports the professional development of early-career investigators in areas related to the pursuit of research funding.

Leads the effort to identify, manage and communicate Limited Submission (LS) and other strategic opportunities important to the UC San Diego research community. Manage the internal selection process for campus responses to calls for proposals in which the sponsor limits the number of applications that UC San Diego is eligible to submit.

Advises leadership and partner offices in decision-making and strategic planning on a diversity of funding opportunities and strategies for successfully obtaining the funding and raising the profile of UC San Diego researchers.

Holds responsibility for implementing Chancellor- and VC-led intramural research funding programs, including managing application and review processes and collecting and reporting on outcomes. In conjunction with RD and Research Affairs team members, serves as primary liaison for teams funded through internal programs, consulting on progress toward milestones and providing guidance and connections with campus resources.

Oversees strategic distribution of funding opportunities and collaborates with individuals and faculty teams to develop funding searches relevant to particular research areas.

The RD team's work is aligned with the Research and Innovation Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee's goal to advance the UC San Diego research enterprise by embedding diversity, equity, and inclusion practices and values in everything we do. We aspire to create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive workplace where all are welcome and valued; are comfortable bringing their authentic selves; and have the opportunity, resources, and support to thrive.
