2011 Prevent Blindness America Investigator Award: Deadline April 1
The 2011 Prevent Blindness America Investigator Award provides funding for research investigating public health related to eye health and safety. Applications will be accepted in the following priority areas in adult vision, children’s vision, or eye injury: (1) burden/economic aspects of eye disease/vision loss on society, (2) best practices to integrate vision screening/follow up care to system care access, and (3) vision program effectiveness/evaluation. All research grants need to promote the core mission of Prevent Blindness America – preventing blindness and preserving sight. Basic laboratory science research will not be supported under this program. The deadline for the eighth annual Prevent Blindness America Investigator Award is April 1, 2011. Grants are for a one-year period, range from $10,000 to $30,000, are reviewed by a committee of ARVO members, and commence on July 1, 2011.
