The ultimate goal of the Cystinosis Research Foundation is to find better treatments and a cure for cystinosis. Global calls for grant applications are made twice each year in the spring and the fall. To be considered, research and fellowship applications must take into consideration the mission and goals of the foundation. Research and fellowship grants are awarded for 1-2 years.
Currently, the Cystinosis Research Foundation has $2 Million available for research and fellowship grants. The number of awards and their value will depend on the number of outstanding proposals and the funds available at the time.
The Cystinosis Research Foundation is pleased to announce its Autumn 2024 Call for Research Proposals and Fellowships. The Cystinosis Research Foundation is prepared to fund proposals to improve the immediate care of children and adults with cystinosis and to develop a new understanding and treatment of cystinosis to help these patients in the future.
