Notre Dame Research invites faculty to apply for internal grants to support library acquisitions and equipment restoration and renewal in 2023
NDR’s Library Acquisitions (LA) grant program provides University resources to fund library acquisitions in support of research, scholarship, and creative endeavor at the University of Notre Dame.
The program does not replace the library’s normal means of adding to its collections. It is intended to help faculty seize new and unconventional opportunities or respond to current challenges. Faculty can request materials in print, digital, electronic, or other formats. Requests typically range from $25,000 to $150,000, and cost sharing with other units on campus is desirable.
NDR’s Equipment Restoration (ERR) grant program assists with the restoration, replacement, and/or renewal of instruments and facilities that faculty rely on for research, scholarship, and creative endeavor at the University.
The ERR program grants are in high demand. Grants are generally limited to projects that will be directly for renewal and restoration. NDR encourages ERR proposals that support shared faculty needs and complement current or recent efforts to secure equipment funding from external sources, such as the NSF Major Research Instrumentation or NIH Shared Instrumentation grants programs. Proposals between $25,000 and $200,000 are preferred.
Both opportunities are open to any full-time regular Notre Dame faculty members—including tenured and tenure-track faculty as well as teaching and research faculty, library faculty, and professors of the practice. Applications are open, and proposals are due by March 20, 2023.

- Family guy: Notre Dame anthropologist Lee Gettler broadens perspectives on fatherhood, raising healthy childrenIn his Hormones, Health, and Human Behavior Laboratory inside Corbett Family Hall, Lee Gettler has freezers full of saliva samples (as well as fingernail clippings) from people from around the world. By studying the chemical composition of these specimens, the associate professor of anthropology has developed several groundbreaking studies that have focused attention on — and reframed perspectives about — fatherhood. Gettler has focused on testosterone levels in men — in places as nearby as South Bend and locations as far away as the Philippines and the Republic of the Congo — and how those levels change (or don’t change) as they grow, age, and become fathers. His goal is to examine and share the diverse ways that fathers and families around the world raise children, and to support the wide range of approaches to bringing up healthy youth.
