    Call for Research Applications
    Due: 1/31/24
    • From announcement: “The AOA is pleased to announce that the 2024 research grant application cycle is now open. Research funding is available to DO, MD, and PhD researchers conducting studies that address one of four Request for Applications (RFAs) in three overall areas of foci approved by the AOA Board of Trustees.

  • American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine (AACOM)
    Competitive Grant Program
    Due: 1/31/24
    • From announcement: "AACOM's Grants Program includes awards for medical education research and institutional research. Institutional research is a broad category of work done at colleges (and across colleges within a profession) to inform decision-making and planning. While collaborative, multi-institution research studies are desirable, the grant could support a pilot study or serve as the basis for seeking matching funds at individual institutions. Proposals pertaining to technology or artificial intelligence (AI) are of importance this year. Additionally, topics related to workforce issues—such as the implications of the expansion of osteopathic medical colleges, branch campuses, additional teaching sites, and class sizes—are of continued interest."
      More information and to submit
  • International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE)
    • IAMSE 2024 Educational Scholarship & Curriculum Innovation Grants
      Deadline: 1/15/24
      • From announcement: "The International Association of Medical Science Educators (IAMSE) wishes to encourage and support scholarship in medical science education and will fund multiple educational scholarship and curriculum innovation grants for up to $5000 each. We are excited to announce that proposals for 2024 grants are now being accepted!"

  • Addressing Microaggressions Online Module
    • From announcement: "The Addressing Microaggressions Module was established at Rowan-Virtua SOM to address feedback that we've received from the Foundations of DEI Certificate sessions hosted at Rowan-Virtua SOM - Individuals can recognize microaggressions when they happen. Still, they do not necessarily have the tools to address them. Additionally, when reviewing the literature of the biomedical sciences, medical education, and medical and biomedical practice, the existence and impact of microaggressions are often cited as a challenge facing both educational and professional settings."
