I founded Cayuse over 15 years ago to help streamline the process of applying for federal research funds. Since our founding, our two main product lines, GrantSlam and Cayuse424, have helped thousands of researchers and hundreds of research administrators pursue and win federal research dollars.
Really, though, what comes next is more important. What happens when the proposals are funded? How does funding turn into science, and how does science improve the quality of life? This blog gives us a forum to talk about the results of research. While I'm especially interested in research from scientists at Cayuse customer sites, it's not my exclusive focus. I am interested in science anywhere that has a beneficial impact on the world.
Grantopedia also provides a place for dialog about what's working and what's not in the federal research ecosystem. The first incarnation of Grantopedia focused solely on the more technical aspects of the federal granting process, and we will still present topics on that theme as they are appropriate, but our vision for this blog, and for Cayuse, is larger than just the proposal process. It's about enabling researchers with the means to do important work.
I invite you to comment. This is a moderated blog, run by me and the Cayuse marketing team. I look forward to hearing from you.
