Application for Funding Support

The Outreach and Strategic Alliance Committee of the Society for Free Radical Biology and Medicine (SFRBM) invites applications for funding in support of Scientific Meetings and Senior Scientist Fellowships relating to the mission and purpose of SFRBM.

Areas of Support

Two areas of support are offered. An application should request funds in only one of
these areas.

  1. Meeting support - cash support provided by SFRBM.
  2. Senior SFRBM Scientist Fellowship Award - provides travel support for an SFRBM member to present an educational session at the meeting of another large professional society, towards the goal of building educational and scientific alliances with SFRBM.

Outreach Goals

  • Improve scientific standards for research and medical applications of free radical chemistry, redox biology and antioxidants throughout the world
  • Enhance the already-established educational and scientific alliances that strengthen research in the area of free radical chemistry, redox biology and antioxidants
  • Build new educational and scientific alliances with other professional societies to strengthen research in the area of free radical chemistry, redox biology and antioxidants
  • Increase the visibility of SFRBM in order to recruit sustainable members, increase the attendance of SFRBM Annual Meetings, and improve funding for free radical research from government and private agencies
