The Biocodex Microbiota Foundation’s Vietnam national research grant supports scientific projects directly related to gut microbiota and human digestive diseases, covering both children and adults. Basic, applied, and clinical research are eligible. Vietnam joined the Foundation’s country-level research grant program in 2026, with the Vietnam Pediatric Association leading scientific evaluation, the Foundation administering and funding the grant, and Biocodex Vietnam providing local operational support.
The program seeks research relevant to gut microbiota that demonstrates scientific quality, originality, creativity, and benefit to human health. Independent reviewers in gastroenterology and pediatrics also assess researcher competence, the research environment, and project feasibility. Funding supports specific research projects, rather than training activities, conferences or workshops, or standalone equipment purchases.
