Rettsyndrome.org: Research Grants (LOI)

The Translational Research Program:  awards designed to develop an in vitro screen that can screen large libraries leading to families of molecules that could be moved into an in vivo screen.

The Neuro-Habilitation Research Program: applications focusing on improving communication and healthcare delivery.

The Clinical Research Program: sponsors NHS Pilot Project Grants, with defined a scope as small scale trials, facilitated through NHS Network sites.  These: Projects types may include: Outcome measures, Biomarkers, including wearables and medical devices, behavioral or therapy interventions pragmatic trials that may require a multi-disciplinary approach in methodology.

The Basic Research Program: covers different studies that are discovery-based and aim to identify novel translational targets feedback/feedforward mechanisms; that have a common link between basic and translational research programs; that will identify genetic modifiers and novel targets and that will investigate whether oxidative/cellular stress is a causal or secondary effect of Rett syndrome.

The Mentored Training Fellowship Program: Supports scientists early in their career to in both basic and clinical research in the field of Rett syndrome so that they become successful, independent basic research scientists and clinical investigators.

 Funding: $50K-$150K over 2 years. 10% Overhead
