The American Head and Neck Society announced on October 1 that its 2027 research-grant applications are open. The call covers head and neck oncology and includes opportunities for trainees and academic surgeons.

Three presidential awards focus on care value, emerging technologies and surgical innovation. Other listed programs support pilot projects, translational work and early-career research. These are proposed research priorities; the announcement does not report study findings.

AHNS directs applicants through the Academy’s CORE process, using Proposal Central for paperless submissions. A letter of intent must precede the full application. Membership, training-stage and other eligibility requirements differ by award.

One detail needs checking against the current funding notice: the October 1 announcement lists one trainee pilot award, while the society’s standing grants guide lists two. Both pages were checked on October 6. This brief leaves that count unresolved and does not state award amounts or submission deadlines.

WHY WE’RE FOLLOWING IT / EDITORIAL CONTEXT

Applicants can use the call to choose a research direction, then check the current funding notice for eligibility and the unresolved trainee-award count before preparing a submission.
