Faculty Development Award

Grant Program

Each year, the Foundation grants Faculty Development Awards of $240,000 each, paid out over three years. These Awards support the career development of junior faculty members in the specialty of allergy, asthma and immunology through basic and clinical research.

Our goal is to grant three Faculty Development Awards in 2020 with funds raised through the 2019 Grow Allergy and Immunology Now - GAIN - Campaign. Your support in 2019 will lead to more research in 2020. Please consider making a gift today!                                                                                     

 

Selection Process

Award recipient decisions are made by the AAAAI Foundation Council in consultation with the AAAAI Board of Directors. These decisions are based upon the recommendations of the AAAAI Grant Review Committee. The awards will be publicly announced at the 2020 AAAAI Annual Meeting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Award recipients are notified in January.
