Description
The G.E.N.I.E. Physician Education Grant, offered by the Jeffrey Modell Foundation, funds innovative educational programs and initiatives focused on ongoing physician education about Primary Immunodeficiency (PI). The grant aims to improve global PI diagnosis, treatment, and patient outcomes—particularly in healthcare systems with limited resources—by fostering collaboration, promoting PI awareness, and advancing physician knowledge. Supported activities include continuing education programs, grand rounds, scientific publishing, local meetings, seminars, and other physician-focused educational events. Awardees are required to report on their findings and outcomes, which are shared within the Jeffrey Modell Centers Network to drive ongoing progress and knowledge exchange in the field.
