Description
The Global Research Award from the American Society of Hematology (ASH) is designed to support future international scientific leaders in hematology, increase global hematology research capacity, and foster international collaboration. This award specifically targets hematologists who are transitioning from training to establishing an independent research career. It funds basic, translational, patient-oriented, and outcomes-based hematology research, as well as training opportunities such as pilot studies, collaborative projects, and career development initiatives. The program requires a structured mentorship team, pairing each applicant with both a local and a global mentor to enhance cross-border learning and collaboration. The award aims to strengthen research infrastructure worldwide, particularly outside the United States and Canada.
