Research Grant

One of the missions for Sedana Medical is to improve patient outcomes through medical innovation. Sedana Medical Research Grant (SMRG), established in 2019, is an integral part of this mission. This is an opportunity for the scientific community to increase its understanding of sedation in critically ill patients in intensive care.

Each year, up to three individual academic researchers will be awarded a grant of between €10,000 and €30,000. The grant will put priority on research targeting the effects of inhaled anaesthetics in mechanically ventilated patients.

Application process

The grant will put priority on research targeting the effects of inhaled anaesthetics in mechanically ventilated patients in intensive care. High priority will be put to projects investigating the effects of isoflurane. However, well-formulated applications for other sedation-related research may also receive funding.

Applications that do not follow the instructions will not be assessed.

Up to three individual academic researchers will be awarded a grant of between €10,000 and €30,000.

Application review process

All applications will be assessed by a committee. All project information besides the abstract, the applicant information, and the photo will remain confidential.

Granted applications will be presented on Sedana Medical´s website. Please send your application with the research project headings below to SMRG@sedanamedical.com.

We welcome your application.
