Schroeder Center Awards Grants to Faculty
今年春天,施罗德中心(Schroeder Center)向四名从事卫生政策研究的教员颁发了第一套小额赠款计划奖。 新项目将增加对威廉玛丽学院教师主导的卫生政策研究项目的支持,这是施罗德卫生政策中心的一个重要目标。 Because the Schroeder Center for Health Policy recognizes the important contributions and perspectives that various academic disciplines bring to the study of health policy issues, the Small Grants Program provides support for faculty in several disciplines including Kinesiology and Health Sciences, Psychology, and Economics, among others. For 2013, the Small Grants Program will provide $2,000 for each of the following faculty-led research projects:
- Chon Abraham (Business), “Data Analytics and Healthcare Information Technology”
- Danielle Dallaire (Psychology), “Healthy Beginnings”
- Scott Ickes (Kinesiology and Health Sciences), “Defining the Influence of Maternal Capacities on the Adoption of Essential Child Survival Interventions in Malawi and Uganda”
- Nick Sanders (Economics), “The Clean Air Act Amendments, Sulfur Dioxide, and Infant Health in the US”
The Schroeder Center Small Grants Program will award up to four grants annually. William & 玛丽 faculty will be invited to submit applications for the next round of Schroeder Center Small Grants in January 2014.
