NREF Support Leads to Future NIH Funding

An award from the NREF can have an extraordinary impact on a career in neurosurgery. For example, nearly one-third of NREF grant recipients go on to receive NIH funding. Assistant Professor, Director of Neurosurgical Oncology, Department of Neurosurgery at the University of Arkansas Medical Sciences – and a 2013-14 NREF Cerebrovascular Section Research Fellowship Grant recipient herself – Analiz Rodriguez MD, PhD, has co-authored an article on career outcomes of NREF grant recipients in the current issue of Journal of Neurosurgery.
