Award: 

• Support is available for $150,000 per year (plus 12 percent for indirect costs) for up to two years, at which time a grant may be competitively renewed for additional funding.

Eligibility: 

United States residents and applicants from outside the United States are welcome to apply. Applicants must be independent investigators. Industry-sponsored research projects are not eligible to apply and instead should consider applying to the Therapeutic Development Award program or other programs. Fellows may submit applications; however, funding will only be considered if they will hold a faculty-level appointment at the time of the award.

Description:

Research grants are intended to support basic science research. Studies may be carried out at the subcellular, cellular, animal, or patient levels. To be considered, proposals must be hypothesis-driven and provide sufficient preliminary data to justify Cystic Fibrosis Foundation support.
