The University of Mindanao through the Research and Innovation Center started the month with the roll out of LEAD 4.0 (Leveraging Expertise to Advance and Develop)โ€”a capacity-building training and writeshop aimed at preparing faculty-researchers for the 2026 Department of Science and Technology (DOST) research grant call.

This two-day training and writeshop will focus on enhancing UM researchersโ€™ competencies in proposal development, including aligning research agendas with national priorities, sharpening problem statements, refining methodologies, and meeting the technical requirements of major funding agencies. Emphasis will be placed on producing research proposals that are not only methodologically sound but also responsive to societal and developmental needs.

No organization starts big, and no success is built alone. What makes us strong is not just our goals, but how we value, respect, and support one another every step of the way.

We celebrate wins as one, face challenges as one, and grow by understanding and uplifting each other. Every contribution matters.

Every effort counts. What RIC is today is the result of a team that worked, works, and continues to work with commitment and heart.

In RIC, we move forward not as individualsโ€”but as one team, together.

The Research and Innovation Team actively participated in the 2026 DOST Call Conference in Butuan City today, February 24, reinforcing the institutionโ€™s commitment to advancing research excellence and expanding access to external funding opportunities. The conference, organized by the Department of Science and Technology (DOST), served as a vital platform for presenting priority research agenda, funding mechanisms, and collaborative initiatives aligned with national development goals. Through plenary sessions and program briefings, the team gained valuable insights into proposal preparation, eligibility requirements, and strategic alignment with DOSTโ€™s research thrusts for this current call.

The delegation was led by Dr. Maria Linda Arquiza, Vice President for Research and Innovation, and included key academic and research leaders: Dr. Joel B. Tan, Assistant Vice President for Business and Social Science Studies; Dr. Charlyn T. Gorgonio, Director of the Institute of Biodiversity and Environment; Dr. Khino J. Parohinog, OIC-Director of the Institute of Emerging Technologies; Mr. Conrado Jr. B. Panerio, Director of the Institute of Social Welfare and Human Development; and Ms. Shaina Lou Palar, a DOST-SEI CIP Fellow representing the UM Biomolecular Engineering Laboratory (UMBEL).

By engaging in discussions and networking activities, the team explored intensified outsourcing of research funds and strengthened linkages with potential funding partners and collaborators. Their participation highlights a proactive strategy to secure sustainable research grants, foster innovation-driven projects, and enhance the institutionโ€™s contribution to scientific advancement and community development.

On 3rd and 4th of March, the team is expected to re-echo their learnings during the call conference to UM Project Leaders during the LEAD 4.0 in preparation for the current call proposal
