Cystinosis Research Foundation Research Proposals and Postdoctoral Research Fellowships
The goal of the Cystinosis Research Foundation is to find better treatments and a cure for cystinosis. Research and fellowship applications must be consistent with the mission and goals of the foundation in order to be considered. Global calls for grant applications will be made twice each year. Research and fellowship grants are awarded for 1-2 years. Currently, the Cystinosis Research Foundation has $5 Million available for research and fellowship grants. The number of awards and the awarded amount will depend on the number of outstanding proposals and the funds available at the time.
1 – 2 years
The total award cannot exceed $75,000 per year including overhead.
First priority will be given to “named” postdoctoral trainees. However, investigators who
are already studying cystinosis can apply for a fellowship position with the expectation of
attracting a suitable postdoctoral fellow within a year. Pre-doctoral students, who are already studying cystinosis, will be considered if funding is available.
