Research Award Program
Award Requirements
If your funded research project requires IRB approval, proof of approval is required throughout the award term. If it expires during your award period, you may upload the current approval to your award record via the appropriate award portal. Or you may send it to dfrap@dermatologyfoundation.org. The Foundation also requires the submission of final research and financial reports for each granted award. The DF will advise you via email when the reports are needed.
- To confirm that you have met the reporting requirement for your award, you will receive an email confirmation from the DF. If you do not receive this confirmation email, please contact the office at 847-328-2256 or dfrap@dermatologyfoundation.org.
- The final award payment will be scheduled for disbursement once the financial and research reports have been received. Please note, award funds will not be distributed beyond one year of the award termination date.
