As the average life expectancy of patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) continues to increase, the CF Foundation recognizes the growing demand for physicians trained to address the unique medical needs of adult patients with CF and the need for greater participation from adult care programs in the clinical research enterprise. The CF Foundation will recruit another cohort of caregivers to the Program for Adult Care Excellence (PACE) in order to expand the scope of adult care programs by increasing the number of adult caregivers. Accordingly, CFF has released this Request for Applications (RFA) for PACE training awards to physicians interested in developing expertise in the care of adult patients with CF. In addition to adult pulmonologists, primary care physicians interested in adult CF care are encouraged to apply.
Deadline: Rolling through November 1, 2024
Eligibility: • Previous PACE awardees are ineligible to apply unless award was relinquished due to change of institutions. • All applicants must be either a citizen or a legal resident of the United States with career plans to remain working in the United States. • Applicants must be physicians trained in Internal Medicine, Internal Medicine/Pediatrics or Family Medicine. • Applicants must have less than 5 years of clinical experience in CF Care, exclusive of training. • Additional eligibility requirements can be found in Section IV.
