Abstract:
The Research in Hearing and Balance Grant Program supported by the American Academy of Audiology and the American Academy of Audiology Foundation provides small grants to support student and audiologist investigators. These small grants support basic and applied research, and they can serve as a springboard to larger research studies. Hear how the grant launched the research program of recipients, and gain insights into how to secure larger grant funding and how to build a successful research trajectory.

Learning Objectives:

Identify current sources of AAA and AAAF funding along with requirements.
Name audiology researchers who have parlayed grant funding from the Academy into a larger research platform.
Discuss strategies for building a research career.
