The American Neurogastroenterology and Motility Society (ANMS) offers the Transition Award to help researchers move toward independent careers in neurogastroenterology and GI motility. It supports basic science, translational, and clinical research aligned with the society’s mission.
ANMS reviews the proposed work’s potential impact, innovation, approach, and supporting hypotheses. It also considers the investigator’s productivity, training, alignment with its mission, and academic potential. Recipients share their ANMS-funded work with the field through an abstract submitted for presentation at an ANMS Annual Meeting.
