A primary goal of the Association's Research Program is to support the careers of young scientists. The Junior Faculty and Career Development Awards provide young scientists the crucial salary and research support needed to establish a track record of success that ultimately leads to further funding from the NIH. The Distinguished Clinical Scientist Award recognizes mid-career investigators for leadership in patient-oriented diabetes research and provides support to further the investigator's work and training.
Due to budget constraints, the Distinguished Clinical Scientist Award is not being offered for funding in 2013.
