Announcing the 2026 ASCENT Research Scholars

The ASCENT Consortium is pleased to announce the recipients of the 2026 Research Scholar Award during ASCENT’s first grant cycle.

This Research Scholar Award offers two years of support for salary and/or research activities for junior faculty seeking to establish themselves as independent investigators in palliative care research. It also provides protected time, mentorship, and training for developing competitive research programs that may ultimately lead to larger, extramurally funded programs.
