John R. Evans Leaders Fund
Program Overview
The John R Evans Leaders Fund (JELF) helps institutions to recruit and retain outstanding researchers, acquire the tools that enable the innovative work of leading researchers and offer research support that, when combined with research support from our partner organizations, is highly competitive.
JELF awards are held by the institution rather than by individual researchers. To ensure that JELF proposals are aligned with institutional research priorities, the selection and development of JELF proposals is coordinated by the Office of Research and Innovation Services.
