We are no longer accepting applications for the 2024 Bridge to Success Grant for Early Career Investigators (Cycle 1). Cycle 2 will open in June 2024. Please check back for additional details or subscribe to the mailing list to receive updates on AASM Foundation programs. The application overview for this program can be viewed here for informational purposes only.
The AASM Foundation is committed to developing the careers of sleep and circadian investigators by increasing support for sleep researchers. To meet this goal, the AASM Foundation has established research career development grants to assist sleep researchers at various stages of their career.
The Bridge to Success for Early Career Investigators is an AASM Foundation career development grant designed to provide ‘bridge’ funding to promising early career sleep and circadian scientists who have applied for a career development grant such as a K-award from the National Institutes of Health, a career development award from the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs, or an equivalent career development award from another federal or non-federal funding agency, but whose application was not within the funding range. Through this grant, the AASM Foundation aims to assist investigators at a critical juncture in their career where bridge funding can determine whether a promising sleep and circadian scientist stays in the sleep field or moves to a different career track. The funding provides support during the period of time needed for revision and resubmission of a promising application in response to reviewer critiques.
This AASM Foundation research grant is supported by AASM Foundation general funds.
