The Hartwell Foundation invites each Top Ten
Center to nominate up to four individuals for a
Hartwell Individual Biomedical Research Award. In
addition, Yale University, Case Western
Reserve University, Northwestern University,
Boston University and the University of
Pennsylvania will participate at-large, and may
nominate up to two individuals for the same
competition. Based upon submitted Nominees, the
Foundation will select ten investigators to receive
a Hartwell Individual Biomedical Research Award, to
be announced in April of 2015. For each Nominee
selected for funding, the sponsoring participating
institution will also receive a Hartwell Fellowship to
fund one postdoctoral candidate of their choice who
exemplifies the values of the Foundation. The
Fellowships offer support for two years at $50,000
direct cost per year to support researchers in the early
stage of their career by enabling them to pursue further
specialized training in biomedical sciences as part of
their professional development. In selecting each research center of excellence, The
Hartwell Foundation takes into account the shared values
the institution has with the Foundation relating to
children's health, the presence of an associated medical
school and biomedical engineering program, and the
quality and scope of ongoing biomedical research. The
Foundation also considers the institutional commitment
to support collaboration, provide encouragement, and
extend technical support to the investigator, especially
as related to translational approaches and technology
transfer that could promote rapid clinical application
of research results.
