Pediatric Oncology Nursing Small Project Grants
Up to $10,000 will be awarded to the chosen applicants, with a minimum of 3 small project grants to be awarded each year. These awards are designed to support the efforts of beginning nurse researchers to accomplish small research projects with both mentor and institutional support. Examples of fundable projects might include collecting information to answer a nursing question related to care of the child with cancer or applying research based evidence to improve pediatric cancer nursing practice at the institution.

Pediatric Oncology Nursing Mid-Level Project Grants
Up to $20,000 will be awarded to chosen applicants, with a minimum of 3 mid-level project awards to be given out each year. Mid-level project awards are designed to financially support efforts of more experienced nurse researchers to accomplish research projects with the support and commitment of the institution where they practice. Such projects may collect information to answer a nursing question related to care of the child with cancer or may be designed to apply research evidence to improve pediatric cancer nursing practice at the institution. Awards may be used to supplement other support in a large project.

Distinguished Pediatric Oncology Nurse Researcher Grant
Up to $50,000 will be awarded to the chosen applicant, with a minimum of 1 Distinguished Pediatric Oncology Nurse Researcher Grant to be awarded each year. This award is designed for an experienced nurse researcher. Demonstration of a career plan that shows commitment to pediatric cancer nursing is a critical component of a successful application. These applications are expected to be from experienced investigators who require seed money to investigate topics and issues related to the quality of nursing care and the quality of life for children with cancer. Awards may be used to supplement other support in a large project.

Update: Nurse Research Grants deadline extended to Aug 1, 2008

All Grant Applications will be received and processed electronically.

Grant winners will be announced at the APHON meeting in October 2007.
