Description
The National Blood Clot Alliance (NBCA) established this award in 2023 in memory of Jennifer Luft to recognize outstanding early-career scientists and clinicians advancing the understanding and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE). It supports patient-oriented work intended to improve care and outcomes for people affected by blood clots.
Research interests include shared decision-making, access to care, quality of life, and health disparities, while other patient-centered topics are also welcome. Applicants may work in basic, translational, clinical, epidemiologic, or bioengineering sciences, or another field, provided their current or planned project is specific to blood clots and patient-oriented. Support may also advance professional development and other activities aligned with patient-centered VTE research and clinical science.
