American Association of Diabetes Educators Requests Applications for Research Grant
The American Association of Diabetes Educators has issued a Request for Applications for Building the Evidence: The Impact of Diabetes Educator Interventions on Self-Care Behaviors of Diabetes and Related Conditions.
The RFA seeks applications that use innovative approaches to examine the efficacy of diabetes educator interventions for improving self-care behavior in managing T1D or T2D or a related condition. Self-care behaviors should be one or more of the seven AADE Behavioral Outcomes: healthy eating, being active, monitoring, taking medications, problem solving, healthy coping, and reducing risks.
AADE makes awards to the sponsoring institution, not the principal investigator. Applications will only be accepted from institutions or organizations residing in the United States or its territories. The principal investigator must be employed by the sponsoring institution and must be a current active member of AADE. The applicant shall have demonstrated expertise and productivity in the field of diabetes care and education through publication, previous research funding, training, and/or national recognition for completion of research. Further, the applicant must have access to patient population and programs or sites where diabetes education is delivered.
The grant is a maximum of $75,000 of direct cost per year, plus an additional 15 percent of indirect cost per year. The length of the grant period should be consistent with the research objectives.
Further information and application instructions and forms will be available on the AADE Web site.
