Nature of projects and focus areas

Beginning with the 2026 grant cycle, the R&E Foundation is excited to introduce a new priority focus areas funding initiative, designed to support transformative research in cutting-edge, underfunded and high-impact disciplines as identified by the Board of Trustees. These areas represent opportunities for innovation and advancement in radiology and are a strategic focus for the Foundation moving forward.

2026 approved priority areas include:

  • Precision medicine: Theranostics
  • Imaging in vulnerable populations
  • Efficiencies in radiology and opportunities for improvement
  • Personalized care in pediatric imaging
  • Cybersecurity in radiology departments
  • Increasing access and efficiency: Doing more with less

While proposals aligned with these priority areas are strongly encouraged, the Foundation continues to welcome investigator-initiated applications across the full spectrum of radiologic education. This includes—but is not limited to—projects focused on curriculum development, novel teaching methods, global education initiatives and community outreach.
