Established Investigator Awards are intended to provide the resources for investigator-initiated research in a variety of arthritis related areas. These grants typically cover the cost of salaries, consumable supplies, equipment, travel and other items to conduct the proposed research. Applications must be independent, self-directed researchers for whom the institution provides space and other resources.
Innovative Research Grant - The purpose of this grant is to broaden the base of inquiry in fundamental biomedical science, clinical research or behavioral research with relevance to rheumatic disease by encouraging applications for research proposals that involve an especially high degree of innovation and novelty or represent a special opportunity to address unique and relevant research questions. Research projects proposed may involve substantial experimental risks with the potential for highly significant outcomes. The award will provide support to explore innovative or novel ideas with little or no preliminary data. Established investigators with any terminal degree are invited to apply. The award amount is up to $100,000 per year for two years.
