MiamiOH OARS on 07 Nov 18The National Kidney Foundation recognizes that future improvements in the treatment and prevention of kidney disease will rest largely on the accomplishments of individuals now commencing their investigative work. To that end, the foundation has established a Young Investigator Grant Program. Through the program, NKF will award grants of up to $35,000 to individuals who have completed their fellowship training and who hold junior faculty positions at a university-affiliated medical center in the United States for research in the field of nephrology or a related discipline. Projects must be patient-oriented and may include but are not limited to the development of new technologies, mechanisms of human disease, educational or therapeutic interventions, epidemiological studies, health policy studies, and clinical trials. Individuals who have completed the fellowship training in an ACGME-accredited training program and who hold a junior faculty position (instructor or assistant professor) at a university-affiliated medical center in the United States are eligible to apply. For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the National Kidney Foundation website.
