Grant Overview

The DREAM Innovation Grant (DIG) supports innovative high-risk, and potentially high-reward investigations to accelerate anesthesia and pain management research.

Research deemed innovative may introduce a new paradigm, challenge current paradigms, look at existing problems from new perspectives, or exhibit other uniquely creative qualities. The DIG promotes new ideas; therefore, proposals need not include preliminary data. However, a solid rationale for the work must be provided. Proposed work should not be the next logical step of previous work, but should have a high probability of revealing new avenues of investigation. This program aims to provide pilot funding that will lead to successful competition for additional funding beyond the pilot period. The research concept, scientific team, and explicit plans for how this work will lead to follow-on funding will be the primary criteria for judging. These points should be specifically addressed in the application.

The principal investigator (PI) is responsible for clearly and explicitly articulating the project’s innovation and the potential impact on anesthesia and pain management research.

Eligibility

All faculty members of the Department of Anesthesiology at Duke are eligible to apply. One of the grants will be reserved to support a beginning scientist (within 5 years of completion of residency or fellowship) by encouraging and adequately funding projects that can contribute to bridging the gap between training and progression to independent investigator status. The other

award(s) will be used as a seed grant to help investigators with promising science obtain preliminary data to support follow-on funding applications.

Funding

A maximum of $30,000 will be awarded to each recipient. None of the funds awarded are to pay for faculty salary or overhead expenses. The number of grant recipients and grant amount will be determined by the DREAM Innovation Grant Committee after all applications have been received. Application and Deadline

Applications and questions should be submitted to David S. Warner, M.D. at david.warner@duke.edu.

1. A Statement of Intent (Deadline July 28, 2011): a. Abstract (150 word max) b. Preliminary Budget (Budgets should not include salary support for a faculty, resident, or fellow) c. NIH formatted Biosketch

2. NIH R03-like Application Format (Deadline September 6, 2011): i.e., up to 1 page for Specific Aims and up to 6 pages for the background, preliminary data and/or rationale, experimental plan, description of roles of scientific team members, timeline for milestones and completion, and definition of plans to advance work beyond this funding interval (all pages single-spaced, 11 point Arial font). Applications should include NIH biosketches of all participants.

3. Winners will be announced October 16, 2011 during the ASA Alumni Reception.

They will learn how to set up the block area for maximum efficiency in the OR environment, improve their decision making ability and make choices in the performance of regional anesthesia. A one-on-one discussion with the Duke Faculty member reviewing cases, scanning techniques and the image library as well as covering handout materials will augment the preceptorship experience.

Visiting Preceptorship in Intraoperative Transesophageal Echocardiography2011-2012 Dates Available | Duke University Medical Center, Durham, nCFor more information, email Jaime C. Cooke: jca24@notes.duke.edu.Participants in the Duke Intraoperative TEE Preceptorship spend one three-day session in the cardiac operating suites, observing techniques of intraoperative TEE and interpretation of images. Preceptors will participate in active discus-sions with cardiothoracic anesthesia faculty and fellows, and learn the basic TEE exam. They will also learn how to troubleshoot difficult cases and enhance their decision-making skills in the operating room. Cases will be reviewed with fellows and faculty and images from pathology libraries will be used to augment the preceptorship experience.
