Rural PREP Microresearch Grants support locally generated and implemented, community-based research projects leading to local solutions to problems in underserved communities in the areas of:
- Rural healthcare
- Rural population health
- Rural health workforce education and training
There are two types of awards:
- Design Awards are for projects that are under development, with a plan to complete the study within 2 years. Design awardees will be given preference for an implementation award in the 2022-2023 funding cycle.
- Implementation Awards are for fully-designed projects with a plan to complete the project by June 20 of the academic year in which the award is made and that can be disseminated within 2 years of the award notice.
Preference will be given to projects that demonstrate community engagement through in-kind contributions and projects that are collaborative across health professions and/or institutions.
Eligibility is limited to the following institutions:
- Ohio University
- University of Washington
- University of North Dakota
- RTT Collaborative programs
Eligible applicants are current students in a medical school, nurse practitioner program, physician assistant program, residents in a rural physician residency program, or other health professionals training for primary care practice in a rural location.
Applicants should contact their institution to determine their eligibility before applying.
Applicants may be reimbursed for up to $1,500 for allowable research expenses.
