Description
This grant supports graduate-level trainees or postdoctoral fellows, outside the direct clinical realm of interventional radiology, whose research is essential to the field’s future. The program emphasizes fostering collaboration between established scientists and interventional radiologists, encouraging innovative, high-impact, and translational research. Funded projects should advance interventional radiology through interdisciplinary approaches, with a strong focus on research that bridges basic or translational science and IR practice.
