American Academy of Otolaryngology- Head and Neck Surgery’s
(AAO-HNS) CORE Grants Program to offer a new one-year grant of $50,000
for clinical research in the hearing and balance sciences. The purpose
of this award is to support clinical research projects in hearing and
balance science. Clinical research involves human participants and may
be directed toward diagnosis, epidemiology, genetics, clinical
pathophysiology, and treatment.
