In 2019, AAMA proudly announced the creation of the prestigious Medical Acupuncture Research Foundation (MARF) Pilot Grant. The grant was renamed to honor one of the Academy’s founding fathers, Dr. Allen McDaniels. We encourage all members who are engaged in clinical research to apply for the Allen McDaniels Grant – Medical Acupuncture Research Foundation.

Grant Application Details
The foundation encourages applicants to submit only pragmatic clinical trial proposals as opposed to placebo comparison trials. We will award one grant (up to $30,000) each year to a qualified applicant. Applicants will be asked to suggest potential AAMA reviewers who are experienced in their field of application. All AAMA members are welcome to apply. Use the link below to download the application forms required for the grant application. Please note that these forms are similar to other successful foundation’s grants that would prepare investigators for potential future NIH proposals.
