Additional informationThe Fund is open to a wide variety of research topics. We do not focus on a particular disease, but all our funded projects deal directly with children's health. In the Early Career Award Program, the Fund is particularly interested in applicants that show great potential to impact that field of children's health through medical research. Both an applicant's aptitude and inclination toward research are considered. The quality of the mentor and the mentoring relationship are also considered to be important predictors of success.Supporting Linkhttps://www.thrasherresearch.org/early-career-award?
