Welcome to the 2021 Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Investigator Competition!

We are pleased to announce a call for applications to select the next cohort of Biohub Investigators. Successful applicants will receive $1 million in unrestricted gift funds over a non-renewable 5-year term ($200,000 per year). The deadline for receipt of applications is Friday, May 14, 2021. We expect to announce award recipients by January 15, 2022, and plan to start awards on March 1, 2022. 

Please note that the current deadline for receipt of applications, May 14, 2021, is an extension from the original deadline of April 1. We learned that many faculty who were eager to apply for a Chan Zuckerberg Biohub Investigator Award were unable to do so by the original deadline. Biohub is fully aware that the pandemic has imposed unprecedented demands on faculty and their families, and many people are feeling exhausted and overwhelmed. We consequently extended the deadline to Friday, May 14, and strongly encourage all interested and eligible faculty to apply.

For those who have already submitted an application, you are welcome to resume or revise if you wish. Please email us at investigatorcompetition2021@czbiohub.org to have your application reopened for editing.
