The Office of the Vice Provost for Research and its partners offer internal awards programs, research resources and initiatives that support the Johns Hopkins research community. From internal funding programs to the opportunity to showcase their research in the nation’s capital, we have created multiple avenues for faculty to acquire financial and editorial support with institutional resources.
Our Research Support Programs aid faculty and their research teams through internal funding programs, as well as research resources. These internal programs offer targeted funding to meet the needs of faculty, students, and research teams facing the broader effects of the changed research ecosystem. Resources such as the Editorial Assistance Services Initiative offer editorial support for grant proposals and journal articles at no charge to all Johns Hopkins research faculty.
The Bloomberg Distinguished Professorships program is centered around interdisciplinary scholarship, appointing world-class faculty who bridge the university’s schools and divisions, cross traditional disciplinary boundaries, and advance the university’s commitment to innovative scholarship.
The new Johns Hopkins University President’s Innovation Award is awarded to one innovative early-to-mid career faculty member each year who is focused on solving problems in society and translating research beyond academia. The award will help these recipients to launch their promising careers during the crucial years when support for their research may be elusive, and allow them the freedom to invest in those activities most likely to advance their innovations toward the marketplace.

The Johns Hopkins Catalyst Awards support the promising research and creative endeavors of our early career faculty with the goal of launching them on a path to a sustainable and rewarding academic career. These grant awards are available to faculty between three and ten years since their initial faculty appointment.
The Johns Hopkins Discovery Awards provide grant awards to cross-divisional teams in order to spark new, synergistic interactions between investigators across the institution. These grants are available to teams of faculty and/or non-faculty members (e.g. APL scientific staff) representing at least two separate divisions of the university.
The President’s Frontier Award was established by trustee Louis J. Forster and is designed to support exceptional Johns Hopkins faculty scholars who are on the cusp of transforming their fields. These annual awards enable us to give a significant boost to faculty members who have the expertise and creativity to become prominent intellectual leaders but need more time, resources, or assistance to develop and share their ideas.
Hopkins on the Hill is a biennial showcase of the incredible range, value, and impact of federally-funded research and programming. Early career researchers and practitioners from across the Johns Hopkins community are invited to apply to display and discuss their research with Members of Congress, staffers, alumni, and media representatives.
