The Foundation seeks to fund research that addresses a specific and compelling unmet need to improve health outcomes for children, either by clinical translation of theory or application, or the strategic solution of a complex technical problem with the potential to advance translational biomedical research.
Because this program is institutionally limited, there is an internal competition for selecting Duke's faculty nominees. Details below.
TIMELINE
Participating Institutions agree to identify eligible Nominees by holding an internal, open competition from areas of discovery and applied science related to human health, including biomedical engineering. Participating Institutions agree to submit at least one Nominee that holds a Doctor of Medicine or equivalent professional degree or who have been admitted and passed coursework in the fields of medicine and/or surgery from an accredited medical school (e.g., MD, DO, DMD, DDS, MBBS, etc.).
Nominee: Only researchers nominated by a Participating Institution selected by The Hartwell Foundation are eligible to compete for the Individual Biomedical Research Award. All Nominees for the Award must hold U.S. citizenship; must maintain a full-time appointment within the Participating Institution; must have adequate committed laboratory and office space to conduct the proposed research; and agree to the terms and conditions set forth in the Application Process and Administrative Guidelines promulgated by the Foundation.
