The mission of the PSF (Plastic Surgery Foundation) is to support research and development in the field of plastic surgery, with a focus on funding innovative projects that can quickly transition from discovery through FDA approval into clinical testing. This research aims at improving commercial development, benefiting patients, and addressing unmet clinical needs with the end goal of enhancing the field's overall body of knowledge and patient care capabilities.
The Combined Pilot Research Grants program aims to foster innovation in several specific areas of surgery including hand surgery, academic plastic surgery, peripheral nerve research, microsurgery, and fundamental plastic surgery research. This initiative is a collaborative effort among multiple subspecialty organizations with the goal of increasing research funding. Grants are provided to support pilot research projects that will allow investigators to develop their ideas to a level that can secure larger funding from other sources. The program offers up to $10,000 for 1-year pilot projects, focusing on projects that advance scientific understanding and improve clinical practices in plastic surgery.
