Key Information: Applicants and their primary research mentors must be Center members or apply for membership.
The Stanford Medicine Children’s Health Center for IBD and Celiac Disease funds research postdoctoral fellows and instructors conducting mentored projects in pediatric inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and celiac disease. The award provides salary support while researchers develop work intended to position them for future external career-development or independent funding. The Center aims to train the next generation of researchers in these fields.
Projects must primarily concern maternal and child health, spanning development from the expectant mother through adolescence. Eligible approaches include basic, translational and clinical research; epidemiology and statistics; informatics; health services; and health policy. Projects that move a mentor’s laboratory from an adjacent field into pediatric IBD and celiac disease are encouraged. The program page identifies celiac disease research as a funding priority.
