RWJF Physician Faculty Scholars Program Expanded to Include a Selected Group of Veterans Affairs Health Services Research Scholars

We are pleased to announce the expansion of the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Physician Faculty Scholars program to include a selected group of Veterans Affairs Health Services Research Scholars. Up to five such Scholars will be selected by the PFSP National Advisory Committee (now expanded by 5 VA-Liaison members) to participate in the Physician Faculty Scholars Program. They will be designated "VA Faculty Scholars in the RWJF PFSP". Except for the source of their funding (the VA) and the fact that they are supported for five years in their existing Program, there will be no differences between the groups. The first VA Scholars will be selected through this current application cycle, to begin July 1, 2009. Current first-year recipients of VA HSR&D Career Development Awards are eligible to apply.

This joint decision by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, PFSP and VA HSR&D leadership will leverage the resources of both programs focusing on similar research and share the same goal of supporting junior medical school faculty working in important areas.
