Description
The Physician Scientist Training Grant is an AASM Foundation career development grant that aims to increase the number of physician scientists who are committed to pursuing a research career in basic, translational, clinical or population sleep and circadian science. The Physician Scientist Training Grant is designed to provide outstanding early career physician scientists the opportunity of a protected research training experience for a mentored research project in sleep or circadian science. The Physician Scientist Training Grant provides funding for mentored research projects to protect the time of early career physician scientists to conduct mentored research, help establish a track record of funding, become competitive for larger grants and/or prepare for a larger study, and ultimately enable their transition to an independent and successful sleep and circadian research career.
