Questions and Answers

Commonly asked questions about this funding opportunity from the host and other attendees.

Which grants am I eligible for?

Research grants are specific to your level of training. Generally, the name of the grant directly references who is eligible to apply (i.e. the Medical Student Research Grant is for medical students only). The Research Seed and Research Scholar grants are for full-time faculty. Most education grants are for any RSNA member. For the RSNA/AUR/APDR/SCARD Radiology Education Research Development Grant, you must hold a position in a radiology department. If you’re unsure you qualify for a grant, contact Ro Ortiz at rortiz@rsna.org or call 1-630-590-7789, before beginning the application process.

I’m eligible for the Research Seed and the Research Scholar grants. Which should I apply for?

It all depends on the amount of time you have available and how long you’ve held a faculty position at an educational institution. The Research Scholar Grant requires more time and more experience. You have to hold a full-time faculty position at the time of application, and be within five to eight years of your initial hire date. Plus, you have to devote 20% effort to your project. The Research Scholar Grant is more flexible. It doesn't require you to hold a faculty position at the time of application, as long as you have one by the time funding starts. Plus, there's no minimum effort requirement.

Do I need to be an RSNA member to apply for a grant?

Yes, you must be an RSNA member at the time of application. If you’re a non dues-paying member (such as a medical student or member-in-training), your scientific advisor or co-investigator must be a dues-paying member. If you’re currently not a member, or your membership has expired, feel free to contact our membership department at membership@rsna.org.
