New Investigators Research Grant

The American Speech-Language-Hearing Foundation (ASHFoundation) invites new researchers to submit proposals in competition for up to 10 research grants of $10,000 each.

The New Investigators Research Grant is designed to help further new investigators' research activities by funding preliminary studies that could launch larger-scale research studies. Research, while not limited in topic, should be focused to match a one-year scope and should have clinical relevance to audiology and/or speech-language pathology.

Investigators must meet the following criteria to be eligible for the New Investigators Research Grant.

1. The investigator must have completed a PhD or equivalent research doctorate within the past five years (since 2015).
2. The investigator must not yet have received external research funding since completion of the PhD; prior internal university funding is accepted.
3. The proposal must be for research to be initiated, not currently in progress. The study should be completed in one year and the scope should align with the funding amount.
