ATTENTION RESEARCHERS
The APTA Section on Health Policy and Administration (HPA) Announces the continuation of our Research Grant Program
The purpose of the HPA Grant Program is to stimulate, encourage and support research activities that enhance the body of knowledge related to health policy and clinical administration in physical therapy.
The grants are intended to provide funding to assist HPA Section members who are new physical therapist investigators, or established investigators embarking on a new research agenda in health policy and administration. Through this grant program, the Section hopes to encourage the development of proposals that will seek financial support from external agencies.
1-2 clinical research grant awards of
$5000-$10,000 are available to Section members to
assist with a 1-year research study that investigates
a question or questions of importance to health policy
or clinical administration.
Proposals are due
January 5th of each year. Notification
of the funding award would be by July 15th. Earliest funding start date is August
1, 2007. Evidence of approval from an Institutional
Review Board must be provided before the funding
will be released.
