Funding Details
Requirements: Senior Research Award (CRIA-SRA): The lead PI must be a faculty member (minimum Assistant Professor level) with a successful track record of funded clinical research projects and relevant expertise in the clinical question to be addressed. There must be a research team that includes at least one junior Co-PI (Instructor or Assistant Professor, prior to receiving an independent RO1 grant or international equivalent) with experience in IBD research, who is committed to IBD research as a part of his or her career development.
Career Development Award (CRIA-CDA): *The Foundation is sensitive to personal matters that impact career trajectories. Applicants who have taken leave from their career (e.g., parenting of a child, childbirth, long-term care of a parent/spouse/child/dependent, personal health issues), or have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in a way that puts them outside of the eligibility time frame, should feel free to reach out to Foundation staff ahead of their application submission. We aim to be flexible and adjust these time frames if necessary and appropriate. This can be captured in the applicant's cover letter.* The lead PI must be a junior faculty member (Instructor or Assistant Professor, prior to receiving an independent R01 grant or international equivalent) with experience in IBD research, who is committed to IBD research as a part of his or her career development. Generally, junior PI candidates should not be more than ten years beyond the attainment of their doctoral degree at the time of application.
PI and Co-PI must be employed by institutions (public non-profit, private non-profit, or government) engaged in health care and/or health related research. International applicants are also eligible to apply, and there are no geographical restrictions regarding research site locations.
