The CHARGE Syndrome Foundation is dedicated to promoting high quality clinical and scientific research into the cause and treatment of CHARGE syndrome. We have come a long way over the past couple of years, but know there is way more to be done.
CHARGE Syndrome Foundation Scientific Research Grant Program
Thanks to the generosity of our donors, over the years the Foundation has been able to fund high quality CHARGE syndrome-related research projects. Many of our grant recipients have published their research in prestigious journals. Our research grant recipients have gone on to receive over $11,500,000 from the NIH and other government agencies.
If you are a researcher or know anyone who would be interested in this opportunity, please see the below scientific research grant program details. Grants are available for up to $50,000 each.
The purpose of these grants is to promote:
- New biomedical research into the etiology, genetic and molecular mechanisms and treatment of CHARGE syndrome
or
- New research into clinical and medical diagnosis and treatment of CHARGE syndrome.
Both established and new investigators are encouraged to apply. Preference will be given to investigators who are new to CHARGE research and/or to new projects with clear potential to lead to future funding from other agencies.
The 2023 grant application process is now open. Click below for details on how to submit your proposal.
