Grants of up to $22,000 to USA individuals accepted or enrolled in an epilepsy fellowship program for research projects related to treatments of epilepsy. The purpose of this program is to support training and mentorship for the recipient. Research projects should focus on drug therapies, using translational, clinical, or basic scientific methods. Payments will be made to the grantee institution.
The Epilepsy Study Consortium is sponsoring a mini-grant for epilepsy fellows to undertake a mentored research project on anti-epileptic drug therapy during their fellowship training. The award does not require past experience with research or a specific percent protected time for research but instead focuses on the mentorship and training experience for the fellow.
Funds may be used to support a limited research project or for the collection of preliminary data leading to a larger research effort. Examples of appropriate projects include, but are not limited to, prospective or retrospective studies on treatment outcomes or adverse events in specific populations, or studies enabling randomized controlled trials (such as evaluations of new therapeutic trial methodology).
