| Introduction |
| |
The Research Scholars Program provides support to young men and women who are
interested in pursuing a career in urologic research. The American Urological Association
(AUA) started funding research in 1975 and the Research Scholars Program was
administered by the American Foundation for Urologic Disease, Inc. from 1987 until
2005. Following reorganization in 2005, the American Urological Association
Foundation (AUA Foundation) was created. In all, over 460 researchers have been
granted research scholarships and awards through a variety of programs and fellowships.
Many of those scholars remain in academic urology today, continuing to build upon the
base of experience and knowledge gained during their research fellowships.
The AUA Foundation Research Scholars Program provides a valuable opportunity for
young scientists to begin a career in urologic research at a time when many urology
departments across the country are faced with budget challenges that limit research
capabilities. Applicants can choose from one- and two-year fellowships for M.D.s and
Ph.D.s beginning in 2009.
