Grant Process Guide

 

Boston Scientific is a leading medical device company that is committed to advancing the practice of less-invasive medicine. As part of this commitment we proudly support third-party medical research and educational conferences through our divisional research and educational grant programs. These programs provide financial and/or product support for worthwhile medical research projects and educational conferences, as well as for a select number of medical fellowship positions.

All grants for third-party research, educational programs or fellowships -- regardless of the amount of support requested -- must be approved by a Boston Scientific grant committee. In each Boston Scientific division, a cross-functional, multidisciplinary committee meets regularly to review grant applications. These committees review applications against established criteria to help assure that proposals are evaluated on their individual merit and without regard to past, present or future purchases of Boston Scientific products.
