Pilot Research Grant | ESMINT ESMINT Pilot Research Grant ESMINT recognizes the need to stimulate investigator-initiated research programs in interventional neuroradiology. The ESMINT Pilot Research Grant Program provides a one-year funding source to help investigators generate preliminary data that will lead to additional funding from other national agencies or foundations.
This call for proposals will consider all new or innovative projects with sound medical/scientific justification. Research proposals that are highly likely to generate preliminary data for future substantial grant applications will receive priority. A scientific panel will review the applications, and the final award will be subject to approval by the ESMINT Board.
Applicant Qualifications: The applicant must be a current member of ESMINT. Trainee (medical student, resident, or fellow) Junior (≤ 5 years after fellowship) Grant Application Funding Level: This pilot program provides a grant of up to 10. 000 Euro per project and plans to fund up to 2 projects annually.

2025 Pilot Research Grant Recipients The ESMINT Research & Publication Committee, chaired by Aymeric Rouchaud, evaluated numerous proposals to fund projects with significant scientific merit and potential impact. This year, two exceptional projects were awarded funding, addressing key challenges in neurointervention and stroke care.
Dr. Leonard Fetscher (Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin, Germany) is conducting the META-Pilot study – a prospective single-center registry investigating endovascular therapy for chronic subdural hematomas. Supervised by PD Dr. Jawed Nawabi, the study aims to systematically assess the safety and outcomes of middle meningeal artery embolization.
By providing real-world data, it could help refine therapeutic strategies and improve patient care. Research Grant Winner 2025: Leonard Fetscher Dr. Alejandra Mosteiro (Hospital Clinic of Barcelona, Spain) is leading the project Endovascular Treatment for Chronic Subdural Haematoma: A Multimodal Assessment of the Impact of Middle Meningeal Artery Embolization on the Integrity of the Subjacent Brain.
Supervised by Prof. Ramon Torné Torné, her multimodal approach combines clinical and imaging data to evaluate how this therapy affects the integrity of the subjacent brain. The study is designed to provide deeper insights into treatment effects and patient outcomes.
Dr. Alejandra Mosteiro and Dr. Aymeric Rouchaud 2024 Pilot Research Grant Recipients The ESMINT Research & Publication Committee, chaired by Aymeric Rouchaud, evaluated numerous proposals to fund projects with significant scientific merit and potential impact. This year, two exceptional projects were awarded funding, addressing key challenges in neurointervention and stroke care.
Dr. Sophia Hohenstatt (Heidelberg, Germany) is exploring the Quantification of Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Blood and Thrombi of Stroke Patients. This innovative study, supervised by Markus Möhlenbruch, aims to assess the presence of microplastics and nanoplastics in stroke patients. It could provide valuable insights into how environmental pollutants might affect stroke incidence and severity.
Dr. Antonio Laiso (Firenze, Italy) is investigating The RADIONICS Study (Pre-hospital Transcranial Doppler Selection for Patients with Large Vessel Occlusion), aimed at enhancing early stroke detection using transcranial Doppler technology in pre-hospital settings. This project seeks to transform the identification and treatment of patients with large vessel occlusion (LVO), ultimately improving outcomes for this high-risk group.
