The Glenn Foundation for Medical Research (GFMR) and AFAR are pleased to announce a new funding opportunity and increased funding for two other programs in 2023.
The Glenn Foundation Discovery Award has been created to support research projects with strong potential to develop pioneering discoveries to understand the underlying mechanisms of biology that govern normal human aging and its related physiological decline. Relevant proposals from any branch of biology are eligible. Two three-year awards will be made in 2023, at the level of $525.000 total ($175,000 per year for three years).
The LOI deadline is February 15, 2023. Review application guidelines here.
In addition, the GFMR is also furthering its commitment to aging and long-time collaboration with AFAR in 2023 by increasing the award amounts for the Research Grants for Junior Faculty, which will increase from $125,000 to $150,000, and the Postdoctoral Fellowships in Aging, which will increase from $60,000 to $75,000 each.
The LOI deadline for the Research Grants for Junior Faculty is December 15, 2022.
