SSCP Varda Shoham Clinical Science Training Initiative Grant Program

Please consider encouraging your programs to apply for this grant program (available at the predoctoral, internship, or postdoctoral levels).

The Society for a Science of Clinical Psychology (SSCP) wishes to announce the 6^th annual Varda Shoham Clinical Science Training Initiative (formerly the “Clinical Scientist Training Initiative”) grant program.  Applications are invited for small (up to $1500), non-renewable grants for training programs at the predoctoral, internship, or postdoctoral levels to launch new projects or support ongoing initiatives that are designed to more effectively integrate science and practice into their training program.

As with last year, the Initiative provides three different tracks for applicants: 1) Conducting science in/on applied settings, 2) Innovation in clinical science training or resources, or 3) Value-added to the program. These tracks are aimed at maximizing the diversity of applications and awards given.

Applications are due by March 31, 2016, and funds will be distributed during the summer of 2016. Application instructions are available at: http://www.sscpweb.org/page-18087. The list of past awardees can be found at: http://www.sscpweb.org/page-18088.

The application is short and easy, so please consider applying!
