Description
The Doris Bloch Research Grant supports nurses conducting research that advances nursing. Administered by Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, the annual award is funded through a gift from the Doris Bloch Estate to the Sigma Foundation for Nursing’s Research Permanent Fund.
Funding decisions consider the quality of the proposed research, the applicant’s future promise, and the research budget. Novice researchers who have received no other national research funds are encouraged to apply and receive preference when other aspects are equal. Sigma members also receive preference when other qualifications are equal. Projects must be ready to begin when funding is received and be completed within one year.
