Description

Sponsored by the American Head and Neck Society (AHNS) and offered through the American Academy of Otolaryngology–Head and Neck Surgery’s CORE grants process, this pilot grant supports basic, translational, or clinical research in head and neck oncology. Clinical and translational studies addressing prevention, diagnosis, treatment, outcomes, or pathophysiology of head and neck neoplastic disease are strongly encouraged. Research may also investigate disease pathogenesis.

Projects must produce useful information within the award period. Priority goes to innovative work with potential to develop into long-range or expanded research programs capable of attracting other funding. Proposals introducing knowledge or methods from other disciplines, or involving collaboration with researchers in related fields, are encouraged but not required.
