Collaborative Research Grant Applications
ARN welcomes you to explore the two collaborative grants of up to $10,000 in funding, now open through June 10, 2025.
Advance the Science and Practice of Neuroscience Rehabilitation Nursing
The Association of Rehabilitation Nurses (ARN) Advancing Science and Practice Subcommittee, in collaboration with the Agnes Marshall Walker Foundation (AMWF), invites applications for grant support to fund research studies in neuroscience rehabilitation nursing. This opportunity, supported by AMWF and the Research Nurse Foundation of ARN, seeks proposals that explore clinical practice, education, certification, or administrative aspects of neuroscience and rehabilitation nursing.
Funded research should contribute to the broader field of neuroscience and rehabilitation nursing, with the potential to secure future extramural funding. While preference is given to research studies, grants may also support quality improvement initiatives, program evaluations, or performance improvement projects.
