Description
The Empire Clinical Research Investigator Program (ECRIP) provides funding to New York State teaching hospitals to train physicians as clinical researchers and to develop research teams in strategically important areas. The program aims to advance patient-oriented, epidemiologic, behavioral, outcomes, health services, and translational research by supporting the career development of clinician-researchers. ECRIP awards are intended to serve as seed funding for new center grants and to enhance New York's competitiveness for federal biomedical research funding. Projects must be team-based and emphasize career development, mentorship, and a strong institutional commitment to clinical research.
