Orthopaedic Research and Education Foundation/American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons/Rockwood Clinical Research Grant in Shoulder Care

Applications due September 15, 2010

Members of the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) are invited to apply for a clinical research grant in the field of shoulder care. PhDs and DVMs are eligible to apply if affiliated with an orthopaedic department and working with an orthopaedic surgeon who is the principal or co-principal investigator. This grant is available through a generous contribution from the family of Charles A. Rockwood Jr., MD through an endowment fund established by the family to support this program. Clinical relevance must be clearly noted in the abstract under specific aims, and be obvious from the title and the study design. A peer review committee, which will include representatives from OREF and ASES, will select the grant recipient. One grant of $50,000 for one year will be awarded for Project Year 2011.
