Summary: Supports radiology residents’ research in SIR Foundation priority areas to advance interventional radiology and patient care.
Key Information: Residents need a project advisor and at least three months of dedicated research time from their residency program.
Administered by SIR Foundation, this grant fosters residents’ interest in scientific investigation through projects in areas the Foundation identifies as important to advancing interventional radiology and patient care. It supports project-related supplies and equipment for radiology residents conducting summer research that tests a new idea or explores a new area or direction in interventional radiology.
The program connects mentored research experience during residency with the Foundation’s broader goals: advancing scientific knowledge, increasing the number of skilled investigators, and developing innovative therapies that improve patient care and quality of life. SIR and SIR Foundation also emphasize inclusion and strengthening the specialty through different perspectives.
