Collaborative Bridging Project Program

The Collaborative Briding Project (CBP) program is a funding mechanism designed to encourage synergy via collaboration amongst BCBC investigators, as well as with scientists outside the BCBC. It is expected that these collaborative efforts will generate new reagents and resources or apply cutting-edge technology that has the potential to accelerate research relevant to the BCBC.
