Applications for Eczema Research (Champion) Grant
The National Eczema Association, which acts as a voice, resource, and hub for the millions of Americans who are living with eczema, is inviting applications for its Eczema Champion Research Grant program.
The program will award grants of up to $100,000 to experienced researchers in support of innovative, cutting-edge investigations related to eczema. The award also will serve as a bridge for previous successful NEA Catalyst Research Award recipients by providing a funding mechanism to stay in the eczema research field and strengthen their research program and commitment to advancing understanding of the disease.
The foundation has identified the following research priorities: cutting-edge basic and translational science; eczema heterogeneity; novel insights; innovations in clinical practice and care; alleviation of disease burden; and/or eczema prevention.
Associate professors (or above) who have received national-level funding as a principal investigator (or co-PI) within the past five years on an R01 grant or its equivalent (e.g., VA Merit Award, NSF grant, NIH program project, or cooperative grant) are eligible. Applicants need not be U.S. citizens, and the research need not take place in the United States.
For complete program guidelines and application instructions, see the National Eczema Foundation website.
Submissions to this sponsor/donor are managed by the Office of Corporate and Foundation Relations. Please contact your unit-assigned ASUF Director of Development or Research Advancement Specialist at your earliest convenience to ensure ASU's strategic coordination and management of funding applications.
