Description
The Bernard & Lottie Drazin Memorial Grants, administered by the American Hearing Research Foundation (AHRF), provide support for otolaryngology residents to conduct research focused on the hearing or balance functions of the ear. Each year, up to five grants of $1,000 are awarded to residents from select Chicago-area programs or institutions represented by AHRF’s Board or Research Committee. The grant encourages both basic and clinical research in areas such as genetics, neurotology, anatomy, auditory processing, molecular and cellular biology, therapeutic interventions, and device investigations (e.g., cochlear implants). The program is designed to foster early-stage research and help residents contribute to advances in auditory and vestibular science.
