Description
The RSNA Research & Education Foundation supports scientific investigation during residency and fellowship training. Its Research Resident and Research Fellow grants help young investigators gain competence in research techniques and methods while preparing for careers in academic radiologic science. Projects may address any area of radiologic science, including basic and clinical investigations, drug or device development, comparative effectiveness, ethics, quality improvement, clinical efficiency, and imaging informatics.
The Foundation encourages projects that advance imaging science, evaluate imaging technology, or use imaging to answer important biological or clinical questions. Applications must identify a distinct research effort, well-defined goals, and the recipient’s responsibilities, including within established funded research. Priority focus areas are encouraged, but innovative projects outside them receive full consideration. The program does not support projects primarily seeking practical clinical radiology experience or PhD postdoctoral projects.
