Non-Federal Funding Sources

Georgetown University subscribes to Community of Science, the leading global resource for funding information that is critical to scientific and scholarly research across all disciplines. COS aggregates the information allowing investigators to spend less time looking for resources.

COS recently implemented a new tool called Pivot, which allows investigators to have multiple saved searches and receive weekly updates. Existing users should take the opportunity to familiarize themselves with the expanded functionality. All faculty are encouraged to establish a research profile and elect to receive weekly or monthly updates.
