Description

The AACAP Pilot Research Award, supported by Industry Supporters, offers $15,000 for general psychiatry residents who have an interest in beginning a career in child and adolescent psychiatry research. By providing up to two awards to general psychiatry residents for pilot research programs, we support these young investigators at a critical stage, encouraging future careers in child and adolescent psychiatry research. Candidates must be enrolled in a general psychiatry residency. Candidates must not have any previous significant, individual research funding in the field of child and adolescent mental health. Candidates must either be AACAP members or have a membership application pending and agree to submit a poster presentation on their research for AACAP's 72nd Annual Meeting in Chicago, IL, October 20-25, 2025. The research proposal must include the research strategy, a detailed project timeline, a budget and justification, and the inclusion or exclusion of women and minorities. A letter of support from section chief or department chair and a letter of support from the proposed mentor are also required. Please visit the award's website for more information.
