The Donald A. B. Lindberg Research Fellowship, established in 2003, will provide a grant to fund research aimed at expanding the research knowledge base, linking the information services provided by librarians to improved health care and advances in biomedical research. To apply for support, an individual/group must be sponsored by an institution or an organization. One or a combination of the following institutions or organizations may sponsor applicants: MLA Board, committees, caucuses, and chapters; graduate schools of library and information science; university deans or department chairs in health professions schools or health care organizations; library organizations; or scientific academies and societies. Applicants must be members of MLA; be health sciences librarians, health professionals, researchers, educators, and administrators are eligible; and have a bachelor's, master's, or doctor's degree or be enrolled in a program leading to such a degree and demonstrate a commitment to the health sciences. The fellowship is not designed to support research for a doctoral dissertation or master's thesis. An applicant/group may resubmit an application for the Lindberg Research Fellowship for up to a two-year period. Applicants must submit their curriculum vitae or biographical sketch. In the case of a group application, the primary investigator should submit their curriculum vitae or biographical sketch as well as information about each member of the research collaboration group including what role each individual will perform in the research process. The research proposal must include all critical elements of the proposed study including background and rationale, research aims, budget, research design and methodology, timeline, and plans for disseminating the results. Letters of support from the applicant/group's home institution or from sponsoring institutions or organizations must also be submitted. The letters should address why the research is significant to the field and why the applicant/group is qualified to do the research. Applicant's updated MLA member profile is also required.
