The American Academy of Clinical Neuropsychology Foundation (AACNF) and the AACNF Grants Committee are very happy to announce that applications for the Outcome Studies Grant Program are currently being accepted.

The mission of the AACNF is to support research to evaluate and document outcomes of neuropsychological services, and to increase access to neuropsychological services among the public by increasing public awareness of those services and their outcomes. The AACNF considers the study of outcomes imperative in maintaining and improving access to neuropsychological services for individuals with neurological and neuropsychiatric conditions. In an era marked by escalating scrutiny in determinations regarding the necessity for healthcare services, priority is being given to evidence-based practices. The AACNF seeks to increase the availability of empirical data addressing the value of neuropsychological services.

The Outcome Studies Grant Program will award grants for studies evaluating outcomes of clinical neuropsychological services. Grant applications are specifically invited for studies assessing the utility and cost effectiveness of neuropsychological evaluations. Initial target areas include attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, dementia, traumatic brain injury, stroke, and epilepsy. It is anticipated that up to three grants will be awarded for a total of $30,000 each year (divided among the funded studies). The maximum request may be up to $30,000 (direct costs). The Outcome Studies Grant Committee of the AACNF will determine the number of grants that will be awarded with funding based on the cost and needs outlined by each awardee. Deadline for receipt of application materials is April 15, 2010.

For additional information and application materials, please go to the AACNF website at www.AACNF.org or contact Mark Barisa at mark.barisa@baylorhealth.edu

Best of luck to all that apply.
