The 2023 KidneyCure grant programs are now open until 2 p.m. EST on Dec. 7, according to an American Society of Nephrology press release.

Investigators conducting clinical or basic research are eligible to apply, as are kidney health investigators who are at a key professional development milestone. Overall, there are more than 300 grants available in the four program categories.

The four categories include the Pre-Doctoral Fellowship Program ($30,000 per year for up to 2 years), the Ben J. Lipps Fellowship Program ($50,000 per year for up to 2 years), the William and Sandra Bennett Clinical Scholars Program ($50,000 for up to 2 years) and the Transition to Independence Grants Program ($100,000 for up to 2 years).

The KidneyCure Diversity, Equity, Inclusion and Justice Research Scholar Grant was recently added to the Transition to Independence Grants Program, and according to the press release, it will fund an ASN member who identifies as being underrepresented in medicine or is conducting research on diversity, equity, inclusion or justice.

Past grant recipient, Abhilash Koratala, MD, told Healio, “The Bennett Clinical Scholars Grant is an excellent opportunity for early career nephrologists aspiring to enhance their academic portfolio via innovative medical education projects.”

Applicants have until Wednesday to apply and can do so through this link: https://www.kidneycure.org/.
