Cystic Fibrosis Foundation: Research Grants

Letter of Intent Deadline April 1st. Application Deadline: First Wednesday of September to Proposal Central by 5:00 pm (EDT).
This grant mechanism is intended to encourage the development of new information that contributes to the understanding of the basic etiology and pathogenesis of CF. Funding priority will be placed on those projects proposing to better understand the mechanisms behind disease pathophysiology and to develop strategies to prevent or treat it. All proposals must be hypothesis driven, and sufficient preliminary data must be provided to justify CFF support. Information derived from such studies will hopefully lead to submission to other funding agencies, such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH).
Support is available for $90,000 per year (plus 8% indirects) for a period of two years, at which time a grant may be competitively renewed for an additional year of funding. Please review the Policies and Guidelines for complete submission information.
