A preliminary application is due on the deadline, consisting of a letter of intent, a curriculum vitae, and a cover page including the project title and applicant's contact information.

Organizational Limit:

1

Amount Note:

The award amount is unspecified. To maximize the scholars' development, three years of support are provided, requiring a 50 percent time commitment (carefully monitored) in each of the three years.

Eligibility:

Applicants must be junior faculty members holding at least a 60 percent appointment at a university or nonprofit research institute in the USA. Priority will be given to applicants who are below the rank of Associate Professor, who have not received a comparable career development award, and whose work will have an impact on public policy or clinical practice. Within this group, priority will be given to applicants whose research addresses innovative and emerging topics. Lower priority will be given to applicants who are working on institutional change, educational reform, or primarily theoretical research. Applicants who propose to carry out a conceptual or theoretical analysis should specify how such work will lead to changes in public policy or clinical practice. Faculty Scholars will be selected on the basis of their achievements, the strength of their research project, their commitment to the field of bioethics, and support from their home institution. While the amount of an applicant's original work in bioethics will count favorably towards his or her application, outstanding candidates with less direct experience in bioethics will also be considered.

Abstract:

The Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics is a career development award to enable outstanding junior faculty members to carry out original research that will help resolve important policy and clinical moral dilemmas at the intersection of ethics and the life sciences. This research will also put Faculty Scholars in a position to help set public policy and standards of clinical practice.
