GREENWALL FELLOWSHIP IN BIOETHICS
The Greenwall Faculty Scholars Program in Bioethics offers a career development award to junior faculty members, providing 50% salary support for three years to enable them to carry out innovative bioethics research. The program aims to address pressing ethical issues in clinical, biomedical, and public health decision-making, policy, and practice, and fosters a community that enhances future bioethics research by Scholars and Alumni/ae.
Eligibility and Priority Criteria
- Applicants must be junior faculty members at a university or non-profit research institute with a faculty appointment that allows at least 50% effort to perform research.
- Priority is given to applicants who have not yet been considered for tenure or an equivalent promotion, and whose research will impact clinical, biomedical, and public health decision-making, policy, and practice.
- The Foundation values and supports diverse voices in bioethics and particularly welcomes applicants from underrepresented backgrounds.
Application Process
- Only one applicant from a university or non-profit research institute will be considered in each application cycle.
- Institutions should have an internal screening and selection process, as the Foundation prioritizes institutions with tax-exempt status in the United States.
