Announcing Our New Pilot Grant Program Awardees

Through PolicyLab’s joint pilot grant program with Clinical Futures, we get to review exciting proposals for research studies aimed at answering cutting edge clinical questions, developing or informing clinical programs, or influencing practice and policy for children and families in our community. We announced the first three awarded PolicyLab projects under this program last fall.

Today, I’m excited to announce new Clinical Futures and PolicyLab pilot grant funding awards for William Otto, MD, Brian Fischer, DO, MPH, MSCE, Richard Aplenc, MD, PhD, MSCE, Yimei Li, PhD, Beth Rutstein, MD, Jeffrey Gerber, MD, PhD, Sabrina Gmuca, MD, MSCE, Alexis Ogdie-Beatty, MD, MSCE, Emma Edmondson, MDSenbagam Virudachalam MD, MSHPEmily Gregory MD, MHSRobin Ortiz, PhDAtheendar Venkataramani, MD, PhD, Courtney Boen, PhD, MPH, Diana Montoya-Williams, MD, and Katherine Yun, MD, MHS. These talented individuals will be conducting innovative, one-year projects that we believe can influence policy and practice changes and produce timely evidence so that the populations we serve receive the care they need. 

To coincide with the announcement of our new awardees, we also released a brand-new section of our website to feature our pilot grant awardees and their projects. Visit this page to read more about our pilot grant program and the projects funded thus far.
