General Guidelines

IMPORTANT NOTICE:

Due to these tough economic times, SRS will be accepting grants for the Small Exploratory Grant and the New Investigator Grant for the April 1st grant submission deadline.  We will have a limited number of grants available to be given out in the April funding cycle and would encourage you to send us your application.

If you have a grant proposal related to the etiology of Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis, please submit it as there is a separate funding source for these grants.

If you have a Standard Grant application, please hold it for now as we will be reassessing the financial climate for the October funding cycle.

Contact the SRS Office at info@srs.org if you have any questions.

Application deadlines:

Faxed applications will not be accepted.

Applicants do not need to be members of the SRS.

Funds are for work to be performed, not works in progress or already completed.

All correspondence will be sent to the primary investigator. It is the responsibility of the primary investigator to provide information to co-investigators.

The SRS Research Grant program was not developed to support research for independent manufacturers, industry development or personal business financial gain. SRS will be sensitive to this issue and avoid funding these projects.

If grant is awarded, you must submit your findings as an abstract to the SRS Annual Meeting, with no guarantee of acceptance, before submitting to any other meeting.

SRS must be cited as the source of funding in any publication, presentation or in any publicity resulting from the award or its results.
