SciVal Funding - Web Help

The MSKCC Library in collaboration with the Research and Technology Management Division are pleased to host a new funding resource trial that will end on October 21, 2009.

SciVal Funding is a web-based solution that enables researchers, research administrators, and interested users to access current research funding opportunities and award information, as well as funding recommendations based on a researcher’s personal profile and publications list on Scopus, an abstract and citation database available from the Library Web site.

During this two-month trial, we are also seeking volunteers to provide their feedback regarding this “new” grant searching tool, to see how it measures up to funding opportunities currently available to MSKCC staff. If you are interested, please contact Donna Gibson (gibsond@mskcc.org) or Debra Schaller-Demers (schalled@mskcc.org) for details.
