Applications open: Lewy Body Dementia pilot studies funding
Deadline to apply: 11/30/2020
There are a number of research projects that have transformative potential to advance discoveries in Lewy body dementia. These projects are competitive for extramural funding only if they have the resources to develop them further, but funds for pilot projects is lacking. This University of Florida funding mechanism plans to support two pilot research proposals, one basic/translational project and one clinical project.
