Grants Focused on Health Care-Associated Infections


Career Development Opportunities
Dear Colleague,

We are excited to let you know about a new Special Emphasis Notice AHRQ recently issued. This notice announces career development grant opportunities for individuals who are focused on reducing and eliminating health care-associated infections within health care settings, including acute care areas within hospitals, same-day surgery centers, dialysis centers, ambulatory outpatient care clinics, and long-term care facilities, such as nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities.

We highly encourage you to share this information with colleagues and students who are interested in pursuing research careers related to prevention and more effective management of health care-associated infections. Links to the notice and to each of our individual career development programs, including their content, eligibility, and coverage, follow:
