FANNP Research Grants

Each year FANNP sets aside funds for the support of research projects... We invite you to apply! FANNP's Research Committee reviews all applications, and makes recommendations to the Board of Directors on proposals received. Members of the Research Committee are appointed by the Board of Directors.

Each grant allocation will be determined by the amount of funding requested, the total number of grants awarded, and the amount of funds available during the grant period.
The grant application period is rolling - there is no deadline for grant submission. We will provide feedback within six (6) weeks following submission, based on the Research committee and BOD decision. Grant recipients will be announced each year at the FANNP Annual Business Meeting.
Grant funds not awarded in any given grant period will be added to the next year's pool of funds.
Recipients of grant monies will agree to having study abstract published in the FANNP newsletter, and are encouraged to present their work at future FANNP conferences.
Grant recipients should acknowledge FANNP as a funding source in all publications and presentations related to and generated by the funded project.
