American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine Young Investigator Grant
The Young Investigator Grant provides awards in amounts of up to $40,000 aimed at providing "seed money," or start-up funds, for pilot projects. The principal investigator must be an early career orthopaedic surgeon, fellow, or resident with interests in sports medicine research. Any investigative team seeking such a grant must include at least one member of AOSSM in good standing.
All applications must be submitted online.
Pre-reviews: In an effort to improve the quality and competitiveness of submissions, the AOSSM Research Committee will pre-review and critique applications prior to the final application deadline. This pre-review is STRONGLY RECOMMENDED but not required. It is anticipated that by participating in the pre-review process, the applicant's chances for funding will improve. The pre-review will focus on: 1) significance of proposed research, 2) scientific quality, 3) statistical methods, 4) realistic nature of goals, 5) long term value of results, and 6) pilot data. Use the online submitter for the pre-review. You must complete an online application by August 15th in order to receive a pre-review.
Note: Final submission deadline: December 1st before midnight. Please contact Bart Mann bart@aossm.org at the Society office with any questions.
