# $40K For Doing Your Job Well

May 17, 2011

[vaccines](https://chipsblog.pcc.com/tag/vaccines)

This came in via SOAPM, so forgive the duplication for some of you.

Pfizer offers a $40,000 grant to the right "Junior Investigators" who will "evaluate community based initiatives to decrease these immunization barriers." The details of the grant are [on-line](https://www.aspireresearch.org/ASPIRE-Vaccine/index.html) and their [FAQ](https://www.aspireresearch.org/ASPIRE-Vaccine/faq.html) answered a lot of my questions.

What's a "Junior Investigator?"  I hoped one of my kids would qualify, but no luck, at least for the next 20 years or so:

> To be eligible for a junior investigator award, applicants must have a professional  
>  degree (MD, PhD, PharmD, or equivalent), reside in the United States, be currently  
>  enrolled in a residency, fellowship, or post-doc program, or be no more than  
>  5 years post-terminal training, and identify and experience research mentor for the project.

I might nominate [these guys](http://www.tiltfactor.org/pox)!
