Searle Scholars Program

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Searle Scholars Award)

The Searle Scholars Program is a career development award made annually to support 15 young faculty in biomedical research and chemistry at US universities and research centers. The goal of the award is to support to exceptional young scientists who are at the beginning of their independent research careers and are working in the fields of medicine, chemistry, and/or biological sciences.[1]

History Of Awards

[edit]

The award was established in 1980 by a donation from trusts established by John G. and Frances C. Searle.[1] John Searle had served as President of G. D. Searle & Company, a pharmaceutical company known for developing the first female birth control pill.[2] The program is funded through the Chicago Community Trust and administered by the Kinship Foundation.[1]

Award process

[edit]

Applicants must be pursuing independent research careers in biochemistry, cell biology, genetics, immunology, neuroscience, pharmacology, and related areas in chemistry, medicine, and the biological sciences,[1] and must be in their first or second year of their first tenure-track assistant professor position.[3] Applicants at 176 universities are eligible to be nominated.[4] Grantees receive grants worth $300,000, paid out over the course of 3 years.[5]
