Funder: International Association of Medical Science Educators
Due Dates: January 15, 2027, at 11:59 PM Eastern Standard Time (Invited full applications)
Funding Amounts: One award up to $5,000 USD over two years, plus $1,500 PI travel support and approximately $50,000 in in-kind support
Summary: Supports development, implementation, and scholarly evaluation of sharable health sciences curricula created with ScholarRx Bricks.
Key Information: All investigators must be IAMSE members, and funded curricula must be published as open-access RxBricks.
The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE), in collaboration with ScholarRx, supports innovative, sharable health sciences education curricula. Projects must use the ScholarRx Brick Authoring Platform to produce a collection of multiple RxBricks, made publicly available on the ScholarRx website upon completion. The grant supports curriculum development, implementation, and scholarly evaluation for use across health sciences educational settings.
Preference goes to new projects addressing current or emerging educational needs and producing generalizable materials that multiple institutions can adopt. Curricula should complement existing RxBricks Collections. Collaboration across disciplines, departments, and institutions is a priority, with international partnerships and student involvement encouraged. The program emphasizes evaluation and dissemination through the Annual IAMSE Conference and peer-reviewed publication.
