Description
The AFTD Holloway Postdoctoral Fellowship, funded by the Holloway Family Fund and administered by The Association for Frontotemporal Degeneration (AFTD), is designed to support promising early-career scientists conducting research on frontotemporal degeneration (FTD). The fellowship aims to foster a long-term commitment to FTD research by providing two years of substantial funding and mentorship during a critical phase of scientific training. Projects can address any area of basic, translational, or clinical FTD research, including behavioral variant FTD, primary progressive aphasia, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal degeneration, and FTD-ALS.
