ARRS Research Scholarship supports early-career faculty conducting radiologic-sciences research with potential to change radiology practice, while building their careers as investigators and future leaders.
Funder: American Roentgen Ray Society
Due Dates (Anticipated): September 2027 (Application deadline)
Funding Amounts: $180,000 over two years; up to two awards annually
Summary: Supports early-career faculty conducting radiologic-sciences research with potential to change radiology practice and develop future leaders.
Key Information: Requires ARRS membership, a qualifying full-time faculty appointment in the United States or Canada, and institutional protected-time support.
The ARRS Research Scholarship supports early-career faculty who have not yet been recognized as independent investigators. Funded by the American Roentgen Ray Society through The Roentgen Fund, the two-year program combines research support with leadership-building and career development. It aims to advance scholars as investigators, prepare them for leadership positions, and support work that may attract future funding.
Projects may address hypothesis-driven basic science, clinical trials, operational studies, imaging technology assessment, device or drug development, image-guided therapies, or radiotheranostics. Other examples include artificial intelligence, environmental sustainability, comparative effectiveness, imaging informatics, and clinical imaging efficiency and workflow. Proposals may also address medical ethics, medico-legal principles, and patient accountability. These examples are not exhaustive; other imaging-science projects may be appropriate. Selection considers scientific merit, potential impact on radiology practice, and the scholar’s professional development.
