Hone Your Research
The Research Career Development Award (CDA) assists an individual in the transition from fellowship to established investigator. It provides career development support in skin research for a junior investigator.
Featured Award Recipient
Optimizing Phototesting and Investigating Photobiology of Visible Light
Through improved means of investigating photoprotection efficacy extending into the visible waveband, the proposed studies should provide improved guidelines for testing sun protection agents that prevent sunburn in light-skinned individuals. Additionally, the understanding of the evolution of visible-light–induced pigmentation should improve the assessment and development of novel agents to prevent and treat hyperpigmentation skin conditions commonly seen in individuals with skin of color.
