Clinical Research Training Fellowship
Clinical research is the fundamental transition stage between discovery and treatment. Clinical research provides the scientific basis for all forms of care, addresses patient and caregiver needs, and is the backbone for drug development and cost-effectiveness studies needed to improve lives.
The American Academy of Neurology (AAN) Foundation is pleased to announce more than six, two-year fellowships to support clinical research training in the neurosciences. The fellowships are supported by the AAN, the AAN Foundation, and the AAN Foundation Corporate Roundtable
Clinical Research Training Fellowship in Headache The fellowship is supported by the AAN, the AAN Foundation, and the AAN Foundation Corporate Roundtable, and generous donors to the Headache Research Fund for Brain Research.
New! Susan S. Spencer Clinical Research Training Fellowship in Epilepsy The fellowship is supported by the AAN Foundation, the American Epilepsy Society, and the Epilepsy Foundation.
Each fellowship will consist of a commitment of $55,000 per year for two years, plus $10,000 per year for tuition to support formal education in clinical research methodology at the applicant's institution or elsewhere. Supplementation of the stipend with other grants or by the fellowship institution is permissible, but fellows may not accept other fellowships, similar awards, or have another source of support for more than 50 percent of their research salary while holding an AAN Foundation Clinical Research Training Fellowship.
AAN fellowships give researchers more than financial backing—by providing time for research, they are an essential springboard to academic appointments, institutional and NIH career development awards.
