MN Partnership funding status update

Funding for the Minnesota Partnership (MNP) program for fiscal years 2026-27 and 2028-29 was not included in the recently passed Minnesota state budget. As a result, the MNP will not be issuing a Request for Applications (RFA) at this time.

We encourage investigators to connect with their home institutions to explore alternative funding resources. Potential applicants affiliated with the University of Minnesota may contact odat@umn.edu, and those affiliated with Mayo Clinic may contact mcri@mayo.edu for guidance.
