The Society for Academic Emergency Medicine Foundation (SAEMF) Research Training Grant supports two years of concentrated training and mentorship for an emergency medicine academician. Its emphasis is developing sound research methodology skills rather than funding a single research project. The program aims to encourage academic research careers, strengthen research training at the host institution, and foster continued involvement in emergency medicine research.
Applicants must combine strong mentorship and a rigorous training curriculum with an appropriate research project. Training may include formal coursework and mentored research experiences, integrated with measurable career-development goals. The award is intended to build the skills needed to succeed as a research scientist and compete for subsequent extramural funding.
