The Dana Foundation is pleased to announce a call for proposals for its Neuroimmunology program, focusing on brain infections and cancers. Individual grants will total up to $200,000, payable over three years. Specifically, the Foundation is inviting studies of 1) immune-based therapies for primary brain tumors, and for metastases to the brain of other cancers; 2) immune responses to infections in the brain, including but not limited to viral encephalitis, meningitis, cerebral malaria, and prion diseases, and 3) how immune functions are carried out and modified in the brain. Please note that due to financial constraints, selection this year will be extremely competitive with fewer than 10 percent of preliminary proposals likely to receive funding.
The complete solicitation can be found online for review.
