2012 ACVS FOUNDATION RESEARCH GRANTS
DEADLINE: 11:59pm EST, Tuesday, November 1, 2011
|
In keeping with the objectives of the Constitution of the American College of Veterinary Surgeons, whereby the ACVS encourages its members to pursue original investigations and to contribute to the veterinary literature, the ACVS Foundation has established a research grant awards program. Surgically related clinical and basic research proposals will be considered for funding.
All proposals are submitted to an appropriate independent review committee, which forwards an evaluative ranking of the proposals to the ACVS Board of Regents. The ACVS Board of Regents forwards its recommendations for funding to the ACVS Foundation. View information on past grants awarded.
Surgeon-In-Training Research Grants are available to candidates in ACVS residency programs. It is expected that the Resident will substantially participate in developing and writing the proposal. Residents should apply during their first two years as the project should be completed by the end of their training. The amount to be awarded is determined annually.
Diplomate Clinical Research Grants are designed to fund clinically oriented projects that utilize either clinical case material or experimental subjects to address a clinically-oriented surgical problem. This program is not designed to fund basic or fundamental research. The major goal of this program will be to fund small 'stand alone' projects or pilot studies specifically designed to target larger granting agencies. Only ACVS Diplomates are eligible to apply as Principal Investigators. Grants up to $10,000 will be considered with the total amount to be awarded determined annually.
