Description

This opportunity, offered by the American Partnership for Eosinophilic Disorders (APFED), supports investigators launching novel research projects focused on eosinophil-associated diseases, with the exception of nasal polyposis. The goal is to encourage the development of new ideas that align with APFED’s priorities—improving diagnostics or therapeutics for these diseases—and are likely to lead to future external funding. Funding is intended for direct research expenses, including supplies, services, and technical staff, but not for the applicant’s own salary or institutional indirect costs. The grant also provides a travel stipend for presenting research findings at a professional meeting.
