Diversity Research Supplement Award (dermatology | USA)

Dermatology Foundation

The Dermatology Foundation is pleased to once again offer an award developed to enhance diversity in the field of dermatology and the specialty’s academic workforce — the Diversity Research Supplement Award (DRSA). The DRSA is available to recent recipients of DF awards to supplement their current efforts on existing research projects. Each award is to be used to support the in-depth participation of a medical student — belonging to one or more groups considered to be underrepresented in biomedical research — in the completion of a defined full-time research plan. The medical student’s participation may span 6 to 12 weeks.

The Diversity Research Supplement Award provides $5,000 for direct expenses associated with the participation of an eligible medical student in a research project. Expenses may include but are not limited to travel, lodging, and a salary stipend for the student. Award funds may not be used for indirect expenses and are payable to the applicant’s institution.

Award payments will be made in two installments.

An initial payment of $4,000 is made to the recipient’s institution at the start of the award period.
The remaining $1,000 is payable upon receipt of the medical student’s summary of their research experience following the end of the award period, and the institution’s financial reconciliation.

How do I apply for a Diversity Research Supplement Award?

The project mentor should apply for a Diversity Research Supplement Award and is responsible for recruiting an eligible medical student. The Applicant Instructions will help guide the process. Applications are now accepted twice a year – May 1 and November 1. All applications must be submitted via the DF’s DRSA application portal. Updated application instructions will be provided in the weeks ahead.

Application Deadline: May 1 (Spring) and November 1 (Fall)
