Funding Opportunities
The Urology Care Foundation Bridge Award Supported by Dornier MedTech
The Urology Care Foundation Bridge Award, supported by Dornier MedTech, is the AUA's new initiative to support established urology researchers navigating critical financial shortages. Its goal is to sustain urologic projects that are at risk due to gaps between major grants, required post-peer review revisions, or unexpected laboratory setbacks. Each year, two investigators will receive up to $60,000 in support over a 12-month period. The funding is unrestricted (aside from indirect costs, travel and registration/membership fees) and intentionally flexible—available to cover whatever researchers need to keep their projects going. Applicants must be independently managing their research projects, even if based within a larger laboratory. Early career investigators are eligible only if they are no longer under formal mentorship, such as transitioning to an R-level award.
Rising Stars in Urology Research Awards
The Rising Stars in Urology Research Award program provides up to five years of supplemental salary support to urologists who have successfully competed for career development awards from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) or other major funding organizations. These awards ensure that the salary compensation for those committed to careers in urologic research remain competitive with that of their clinical urology peers. The program encourages recipients to contribute to urology as both surgical specialists and scientists investigating causes, prevention, treatment, and cures that will improve patients' lives.
LEAD Program (Leadership in Education, Achievement and Development Program)
The Leadership in Education, Achievement and Development Program (LEAD) supports urology residents who conduct mentored research, engage in AUA research education opportunities and are championed through networking events as they develop successful research careers and better serve the urology patient community. Program participants will have access to research funding, networking opportunities through the annual Urology Care Foundation Research Honors Program and Reception, and educational opportunities through the Office of Research to develop a solid foundation for career development.
