Comparative Effectiveness Research Award in Neuroradiology

Comparative Effectiveness Research Award in Neuroradiology The deadline for receipt of letters of intent is 9:00 AM Central Daylight Time (CDT), Monday, November 3, 2014. The total award amount is up to $60,000 per year (direct costs only), which will be paid in two equal installments on July 1st and January 1st of the year of the award. The Comparative Effectiveness Research Award in Neuroradiology was created to support investigators in the generation and synthesis of evidence that compares the benefits and harms of diagnostic imaging methods or interventions to prevent, diagnose, treat and monitor a clinical condition or to improve the delivery of care. Comparative effectiveness research (CER) is valuable to clinicians, patients, purchasers, and policy makers in making informed decisions that will improve health care at both the individual and population levels. For example, CER projects may include the direct comparison of diagnostic imaging modalities or interventions for a specific disease in a study population. Neuroradiologists have an important role in the development of new imaging technologies and image-guided procedures, as well as in the assessment of these techniques in the clinical care of patients. ELIGIBILITY A candidate must be a member of ASNR in good standing with an MD or DO degree, and must be board-certified or board-eligible in Radiology by either the American Board of Radiology or the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of...
