ADE Medical Education Research Grant Program

 

ADE Medical Education Research Grant Program

Created by the Academy in 2004, the ADE Medical Education Research Grant Program provides funding for two types of projects:  1. Medical education research and 2. Innovations in medical education.  All proposals must be related to the improvement of undergraduate medical education (UME) and the Principal Investigator or at least one of the Co-Principal Investigators of the proposal must be a faculty member in the School of Medicine with a rank of Assistant Professor or higher.  Additional information about the ADE grants program can be obtained from Larry Merkel or Bob Bloodgood. 

 

Each award-recipient should familiarize him/herself with the guidelines, process, and requirements.
