Grants Awarded to VARI Researchers - <strong>2007</strong><br />
One of the indicators of the quality and impact of the research conducted at Van Andel Institute is the success of our researchers in<br />
competing for grant funding. In <strong>2007</strong>, researchers were awarded highly competitive grants and renewals for grants from organizations such<br />
as the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the Department of Defense, the National Foundation of Cancer Research, the American Cancer<br />
Society, and the American Heart Association.<br />
