Grants to USA, Canada, and international investigators for research to improve care for individuals with sleep disorders. Applicants are required to submit a letter of intent prior to applying. Eligible uses of funding include research expenses, salary support, supplies, participant costs, and institutional overhead.

The Strategic Research Award is investigator-initiated and supports high-impact research projects aimed at addressing gaps in knowledge that impact the ability to provide optimal, patient-centered, cost-effective diagnosis, and care for patients with sleep disorders.

Topic areas that address the AASM Strategic Plan goals must advance the field of sleep medicine and population sleep health. The AASM Foundation will consider applications that address one of the following research domains related to the AASM Strategic Plan goals:

Public Awareness – Promote greater public recognition that sleep is essential to health
Technology Innovation – Positively influence the impact of technology on patients and the sleep team
Advocacy to Improve Patient Care – Positively influence clinical practice for providers and their patients

The Strategic Research Award program is organized into two categories to allow flexibility and a range of funding opportunities to potential applicants:

Category I is for those applicants seeking funding for projects up to $250,000 and covers a project period of up to three years.
Category II is for those applicants seeking funding for projects up to $100,000 and covers a project period of up to two years.

- Applicants are encouraged to be members of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine.
- Applicants outside the US are eligible to apply; however, payment of award funds must be accepted by the institution in US dollars.
- Applicants who are the Principal Investigator on a currently-funded AASM Foundation Strategic Research Award are not eligible to apply. Individuals who are listed as key personnel on an active AASM Foundation award, but are not the Principal Investigator, are also eligible to apply.

Please note that the AASM Foundation will not fund ongoing projects that are currently funded by another awarding body, and the investigator or organization will be required to make a statement to this effect prior to execution of the contract. These awards are also not intended to supplement ongoing work, for example, for enrolling additional subjects into an ongoing trial.
