The IQRAA Internal Research Grant aims to foster a strong research culture within the hospital by supporting short-term research projects in clinical and basic science research. It seeks to strengthen the research ecosystem, promote knowledge sharing, and encourage scholarly publications among IQRAA healthcare professionals.

The grant is intended to support research projects of physicians, medical students, Ph.D. scholars, and other healthcare professionals. The project duration will be up to a maximum period up to 12 months. A maximum funding of up to INR 400,000 will be provided per project. The number of projects funded will depend on the availability of funds. Grants will be awarded purely based on academic merit and research credentials; and the scope, relevance, budget justification, and potential impact of the proposed research will also be considered. Each project must have one Principal Investigator (PI) and one or two Co-Principal Investigators (Co-PIs).

All research projects must be initiated, led, and primarily conducted by personnel affiliated with IQRAA Hospital. All data generated through research activities must be primarily attributed to IQRAA Hospital to ensure institutional ownership and recognition. Utilization of collaborative facilities from external institutions is permitted in instances where the required research infrastructure is not available at IQRAA Hospital.
