Description
The SRSF Mentored Collaboration Grant aims to connect early-stage sleep and circadian researchers—particularly those with limited access to in-field mentorship—with experienced mentors for intensive, face-to-face training in advanced research methods. The grant fosters collaborative research outputs, such as abstracts, manuscripts, or grant proposals, and supports ongoing mentorship throughout the funded year. The program is designed to grow the field by providing critical support for training and mentorship at a formative career stage.
