How to Fund Your Basic Science or Translational Research Laboratory
摘要
Due to the increasing pressure for clinical productivity and the time-consuming nature of high-quality research, becoming an independently funded surgeon-scientist is a daunting challenge. This chapter will cover strategies to secure extramural funding to support your research endeavors. We will focus on obtaining National Institutes of Health (NIH) K- and R-level awards since NIH funding is the most widely accepted marker of research success in a surgeon-scientist’s career.
