CORE Research Grant Awards
The Academy and its Foundation are committed to the future well-being of our members and their patients. In an effort to strengthen research support in all areas of otolaryngology, the AAO-HNSF has joined forces with several senior societies to broaden research opportunities, and to streamline and enhance the research application and review process. The Centralized Otolaryngology Research Efforts (CORE) serves as a central clearinghouse and facilitator for otolaryngology-head and neck surgery research programs. Several granting mechanisms area available each year to fund one-year and two-year, non-renewable grants. Additional grants or new grants programs may be announced as more resources become available. Funding is subject to the receipt of sufficiently meritorious applications.

The 2009 CORE Grant opportunities should be announced September 2008. 

Letters of Intent are due Monday, December 15, 2008.
