Each year, up to four awards are given. Awards provide $100,000 per year for three years and may be used for a variety of research activities, excluding the recipient&#8217;s salary.<\/p>\n<p>Priority is given to proposals that incorporate fundamentally new approaches, as well as those that involve human experimentation.
