MUOT subscribes to IRIS, a grants information developed at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The IRIS database is now available on the World Wide Web, and may be accessed from any internet address within the meduohio.edu domain. This database contains over 7,400 funding opportunities for researchers, students and institutions. A wide variety of sponsors is represented, including federal agencies, foundations, corporations, professional associations, and institutes. There are, however, two caveats to the use of this database: 1) Since the database was developed primarily for the University of Illinois, some opportunities are specifically limited to faculty of that institution; 2) only funding organizations that sponsor programs over a wide region of the country are included (i.e., local sponsors such as the Ohio affiliates of the American Heart Association and the American Cancer Society will not be listed).

IRIS, in its Fine-Tuned Search mode, allows the searcher to define individual needs and eligibility for funding and matches them with sponsor interests and applicant restrictions. IRIS may also be searched by Deadlines to generate a list of upcoming sponsor deadlines which may be customized to encompass a range of dates, academic status of the searcher, discipline and sponsor type. IRIS also maintains a Thesaurus which lists in alphabetical and hierarchical form the disciplinary fields in which funding is offered. Finally, IRIS contains daily listings of Federal funding opportunities as published in the Federal Register and Commerce Business Daily.

If you experience difficulty using the IRIS database, contact Carol Reichenbach for more information. She may be reached at extension 4252 or via e-mail at research@meduohio.edu
