The AARG grant program aims to fund early-career investigators who are less than 18 years past their doctoral degree or post-residency (M.D. or D.O.) with funding that will allow them to develop preliminary or pilot data, to test procedures and to develop hypotheses. The intent is to support early-career development that will lay the groundwork for future research grant applications to federal or other funding entities.
This grant is open to U.S. and international researchers.
Letter of Intent deadline: Feb. 28, 2024; Sep. 6, 2023
