1Florida ADRC
Deadline: Developmental Project Grants
November 18 at 5 pm
Research proposals can span the spectrum of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and AD related disorders -ranging from basic, clinical, translational, and health care outcomes and policy research, with particular attention given to novel approaches. Research projects may involve humans, data mining, model systems, preclinical therapeutic development or in vitro studies. Clinical trials are not allowed. Though we will not have a formal LOI process, we strongly encourage prospective applicants to discuss both eligibility and the project with 1Florida ADRC investigators and the director (tgolde@ufl.edu) prior to submission. Total direct budgets up to $100,000/yr will be considered.
