Applications are not currently being accepted for this award.
Collaborative research grants are awarded to researchers at Duke and a second academic institution, to address the Foundation’s goals of advancing the understanding of Alzheimer’s and related central nervous system diseases, and exploring new and effective treatments. Promising studies that are premature to qualify for conventional NIH funding are specifically encouraged.
Investigators should be in the tenure track and may be either early career (typically at the assistant professor level) or established investigators (at the associate professor level and above).
Duke investigators applying for the award will be responsible for sharing the RFP with extramural collaborators and for coordinating the submission of the application materials from both institutions.
