Funder: Cystic Fibrosis Foundation
Due Dates (Anticipated): February 2027 (Application deadline)
Funding Amounts: Up to $75,000 per year for one or two fellowship years
Summary: Supports specialized clinical training and exposure to cystic fibrosis research and patient care for physicians pursuing CF-related careers.
Key Information: Training must occur at a CFF-accredited CF Center or affiliated adult CF program; research projects are not supported.
The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation offers these awards through its Physician Training & Career Development Programs to attract, develop, and retain clinicians prepared to meet the evolving needs of the cystic fibrosis (CF) community. The program supports specialized clinical training, exposure to CF research and patient care, and preparation for careers serving people with CF.
Applications are welcome from residents and early-stage fellows seeking initial CF experience, as well as later-stage fellows committed to CF care or medical education rather than an academic research career. Education and training—not a defined research project—are the focus. This mechanism replaces the First- and Second-Year Clinical Fellowship Award. Fellows seeking research-project support or an academic research career are directed to the separate Clinical Fellowship – Research Awards.
