AACAP Junior Investigator Award

Description

The AACAP Junior Investigator Award, supported by AACAP and Industry Supporters, offers an award for two years for one child and adolescent psychiatry early career faculty (assistant professor level or equivalent). The program is intended to facilitate innovative research. The research may be basic or clinical in nature but must be relevant to our understanding, treatment and prevention of child and adolescent mental health disorders. Recipients are required to submit a poster presentation on his or her research. Applicants must be board eligible or certified in child and adolescent psychiatry. Applicants must have a doctoral level degree and be in a faculty or independent research position. Applicants who have served as Principal Investigator on an NIH R01 grant are not eligible. Applicants with a K award are eligible to apply, though priority will be given to applicants who do not have current federal research funding. Applicants must have an on-site mentor who has had experience in the type of research that is being proposed that will normally include work with children and adolescents. Candidates must either be AACAP members or have a membership application pending. The Research Proposal must include an abstract, an introduction, information on research experience, a description of research methods, and collaborations, if any. Please visit the award's website or contact AACAP for more information.
