Transdisciplinary Research Training Awards
Currently, the Transdisciplinary Research Training Award funding previously provided by the BJI and administered by the Collaborative Specialization in Musculoskeletal Health Research (CMHR) are not available.
Awards were designed to support trainees’ research and research training. Successful applicants received one-year awards valued at $10,000 per year for graduate trainees (MSc or PhD) and $20,000 per year for postdoctoral fellows (PDFs) and clinician scientists in training.
The BJI is hopeful that future funding will allow for the reinstatement of these important awards.
The Bone and Joint Institute advances musculoskeletal research into real-
world solutions that prevent disease, restore function, and extend mobility for life.
