The Foundation of the American Society of Neuroradiology administers this annual program to support ASNR members who show promise for future contributions to neuroradiology. It funds research, education, and innovation intended to advance clinical practice and improve patient outcomes. Supported approaches include artificial intelligence, retrospective or prospective clinical data analysis, comparative effectiveness, novel imaging methods, and technical development, translation, or translational research.
Projects must have a clearly stated, testable hypothesis and well-developed aims. Applicants are encouraged to explain how they will overcome enrollment barriers affecting populations experiencing health disparities. Multidisciplinary collaboration with PhD researchers and physician clinicians is important for certain projects and indispensable for technical translation. Not every research approach will necessarily receive funding each year.
