The JNCL Research Fund make available
competitive awards for basic research grants related to JNCL. One- and two-year
projects are funded up to a maximum total direct cost of $100,000 per year. No
administrative overhead or fixed costs are supported.
In giving these grant awards, the JNCL
Research Fund strives to assist respected scientists in developing a clearer
understanding of JNCL. We are determined to find a timely cure, or
life-improving treatments, for this serious disease.
Scientific excellence and relevance to JNCL
are the paramount criteria used to select supported research projects. Junior
investigators, scientists in related
disciplines, and individuals with innovative new ideas for JNCL research are
particularly encouraged to apply for grants, as are laboratories and teams
working together from industry as well as teaching universities. Grant award
decisions are made through a careful and detailed, scientific peer-review
selection process.
Grants are reviewed and awarded rapidly so
that we are usually able to provide a grant decision within 30 days after
receiving a complete proposal from an investigator.
