Research Fellowships Program – CLOSED

January 17, 2023 By Katherine Devenport

Overview
Childhood skin diseases are associated with severe burden on patients, families, and health care providers. Despite this burden, effective treatments remain sparse and the pace of research slow. To help overcome these challenges, the PeDRA Research Fellowship program supports one year of mentored research for post-graduate trainees and medical students in the field of pediatric dermatology.


Goals
The Research Fellowships program is driven by PeDRA’s mission to create, inspire, and sustain research to prevent, treat, and cure childhood skin disease. Fellowships are intended to support the development of the next generation of physician scientists and the advancement of active research projects in the field of pediatric dermatology.

Important Details

  • Up to $20,000 to support a one-year fellowship stipend for a trainee or medical student conducting a project relevant to pediatric dermatology.
  • Research Fellowship terms to take place at the institution of the fellowship mentor.
  • Fellowship mentors must be Active Members of PeDRA.
  • As many as eight fellowships anticipated in 2023.
  • Application deadline was Thursday, March 30, 2023.
