Funding Opportunities

The American Academy of Neurology is pleased to announce a three-year award to support junior investigators interested in an academic career in neurology. The award provides support of $150,000 per year for three years for a total of $450,000. Recipients of individual K or R awards are not eligible to apply for the Career Development Award (CDA). Applicants are allowed to apply for the AAN CDA and other federally funded career development awards (including NIH K awards and VA CDAs) or other career development awards supported by foundations of a similar scope simultaneously. To be eligible to apply for this award, the applicant’s other grant source(s) cannot exceed $150,000 annually. The American Academy of Neurology is firmly committed to embracing the diversity among our members, applicants, and reviewers and affirms the importance of equity and inclusiveness within the AAN research program.
