Penn State College of Medicine’s Junior Faculty Research Scholar awards support mentored research and career development by junior faculty.
Responsive proposals may focus on basic science, clinical science, health care delivery or the translation of findings between those entities. The ultimate goal of the research should be to improve the health of Pennsylvanians. Priority will be given to scientifically meritorious applications from candidates with outstanding potential to successfully address important problems in biomedical/health research in their chosen field.
It is anticipated that successful projects will result in one or more peer-reviewed publications and provide the preliminary data needed to obtain competitive extramural research funding.
