Small Research Grant Program for the Next Generation of Researchers in AD/ADRD Research (R03 Clinical Trial Optional)
This funding opportunity supports early-stage researchers and those new to Alzheimer's Disease and related dementias research, providing resources to develop innovative pilot projects aimed at improving prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and care strategies.
Description
This Small Research Grant (R03) will support meritorious projects to provide needed scientific insight to improve the prevention, diagnosis, treatment, and/or care for individuals with Alzheimer;apos;s disease and Alzheimer;apos;s disease-related dementias (AD/ADRD). Specifically, this NOFO will support projects covering a wide range of topics related to AD/ADRD. The overall goal of this NOFO is (i) to encourage the next generation of researchers to pursue research and academic careers in AD/ADRD research; and (ii) to stimulate established researchers who have not had a major award in AD/ADRD research to perform pilot studies to develop new, innovative AD/ADRD research programs that leverage and build upon their existing expertise.
