The Technology Commercialization and Partnerships Division invites you to register for a presentation by David McCallum, new opportunity development manager, on the Sponsored Programs Information Network (SPIN) tool.
The presentation will take place at 2 p.m. on Friday, April 26, 2019, in Building 212, Room A157.
SPIN is advertised as the world’s largest searchable database of funding opportunities, and it is available to all Argonne researchers. SPIN offers more than 40,000 opportunities from more than 10,000 sponsors, including favorites such as the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, National Science Foundation, National Institutes of Health and others. The SPIN database also includes information on a wide variety of potential new sponsors.
SPIN features a fast, capable search engine. Users can filter results, save searches and automatically run searches and receive updates.
Given the level of competition there is around pursuing funding opportunities and the evolving priorities within DOE, many Argonne staff are seeking new forms of funding or are simply looking to put themselves in the best position to capture funding. SPIN can be a valuable tool in those efforts.
If you have questions, please contact McCallum via email or by phone at ext. 2-4338
