Twice each year, departmental funds are made available to support new educational projects. This Educational Grant provides up to $8,000 (maximum amount per project) and is open to Pitt/UPMC Department of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine residents, fellows, and faculty, as well as medical students from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. The purpose of the grant is to inspire and assist aspiring department-related anesthesiology investigators who have no current funding to start an educational project. Both curriculum development projects and research projects are eligible. Basic, translational, and clinical research projects are NOT eligible.
