2016 Joanne Angle Investigator Award – a research grant by Prevent Blindness

The 2016 Joanne Angle Investigator Award provides funding for research investigating public health related to eye health and safety.

Applications will be accepted in the following priority areas in adult vision, children’s vision, or eye injury:

• Burden/economic aspects of eye disease/vision loss on society
• Best practices to integrate vision screening/follow up care to system care access
• Vision program effectiveness/evaluation

All research grants need to promote the core mission of Prevent Blindness – preventing blindness and preserving sight. Basic laboratory science research will not be supported under this program. 

The deadline for the thirteenth annual Joanne Angle Investigator Award is March 7, 2016 at 12pm Eastern.

Grants are for a one-year period, up to $30,000, reviewed by a panel of scientists, and commence on July 1, 2016.
