Grant Overview
The DREAM Innovation Grant (DIG) supports
innovative high-risk, and potentially high-reward
investigations to accelerate anesthesia and pain
management research.
Research deemed innovative may introduce a new
paradigm, challenge current paradigms, look at
existing problems from new perspectives, or exhibit
other uniquely creative qualities. The DIG promotes
new ideas; therefore, proposals need not include
preliminary data. However, a solid rationale for
the work must be provided. Proposed work should
not be the next logical step of previous work, but
should have a high probability of revealing new
avenues of investigation. This program aims to
provide pilot funding that will lead to successful
competition for additional funding beyond the pilot
period. The research concept, scientific team, and
explicit plans for how this work will lead to followon
funding will be the primary criteria for judging.
These points should be specifically addressed in
the application.
The principal investigator (PI) is responsible for
clearly and explicitly articulating the project’s
innovation and the potential impact on anesthesia
and pain management research.
Eligibility
All faculty members of the Department of
Anesthesiology at Duke are eligible to apply.
One of the grants will be reserved to support a
beginning scientist (within 5 years of completion
of residency or fellowship) by encouraging and
adequately funding projects that can contribute to
bridging the gap between training and progression
to independent investigator status. The other
sPECIAL AnnOUnCEMEnT
DREAM Innovation Grant (DIG)
award(s) will be used as a seed grant to help
investigators with promising science obtain
preliminary data to support follow-on funding
applications.
Funding
A maximum of $30,000 will be awarded to each
recipient. None of the funds awarded are to pay
for faculty salary or overhead expenses. The
number of grant recipients and grant amount
will be determined by the DREAM Innovation
Grant Committee after all applications have been
received.
Application and Deadline
Applications and questions should be submitted to
David S. Warner, M.D. at david.warner@duke.edu.
1. A Statement of Intent (Deadline July 28, 2011):
a. Abstract (150 word max)
b. Preliminary Budget (Budgets should not
include salary support for a faculty, resident, or
fellow)
c. NIH formatted Biosketch
2. NIH R03-like Application Format (Deadline
September 6, 2011): i.e., up to 1 page for Specific
Aims and up to 6 pages for the background,
preliminary data and/or rationale, experimental
plan, description of roles of scientific team
members, timeline for milestones and completion,
and definition of plans to advance work beyond
this funding interval (all pages single-spaced, 11
point Arial font). Applications should include NIH
biosketches of all participants.
3. Winners will be announced October 16, 2011
during the ASA Alumni Reception.

for more
information and to register.
Due to their many anatomic, physiologic, and developmental differences, infants
and young children constitute a high-risk population for undergoing anesthesia
and surgery. A collaborative approach requires that all team members function
with the most up-to-date information on providing safe pediatric anesthesia care.
Ultrasound for Every Anesthesiologist

For more information, email Katherine siler: siler006@mc.duke.edu.
This is a one-day intensive hands-on workshop specifically designed to teach
ultrasound to Anesthesiologists of all skill levels ensuring that ultrasound is being
used correctly and to its full potential. The use of ultrasound guided regional
anesthesia could increase patient cases and success in patient outcome.

area, operating rooms and on the floor with post surgery patients observing ultrasound
guided single shot nerve blocks and catheter techniques in a wide variety
of clinical scenarios. They will learn how to set up the block area for maximum
efficiency in the OR environment, improve their decision making ability and make
choices in the performance of regional anesthesia. A one-on-one discussion with
the Duke Faculty member reviewing cases, scanning techniques and the image
library as well as covering handout materials will augment the preceptorship
experience.
Visiting Preceptorship in Intraoperative
Transesophageal Echocardiography

session in the cardiac operating suites, observing techniques of intraoperative
TEE and interpretation of images. Preceptors will participate in active discussions
with cardiothoracic anesthesia faculty and fellows, and learn the basic TEE
exam. They will also learn how to troubleshoot difficult cases and enhance their
decision-making skills in the operating room. Cases will be reviewed with fellows
and faculty and images from pathology libraries will be used to augment the
preceptorship experience.
