The Seed Grant supports investigators conducting preliminary research in any area related to radiology. Its purpose is to help researchers define objectives and test hypotheses before applying for major grants from corporations, foundations, or government agencies. The focus is on early investigative work rather than a specified imaging topic.
The program is administered by the Society for Pediatric Radiology Research and Education Foundation as part of its mission to address the research and education needs of the pediatric radiology community and further the art and science of pediatric imaging. The Foundation is governed by an independent Board of Directors and develops funding programs, evaluates applications, and manages the resources supporting its awards.
