NEA Engagement Grant
The NEA Engagement Grant from the National Eczema Association funds early-stage, innovative research projects in eczema by emerging investigators to generate preliminary data for future studies.
Funder: National Eczema Association
Due Dates: August 14, 2026 (Full application, 5:00 p.m. PDT)
Funding Amounts: Up to $5,000 (direct costs only), 1-year non-renewable grant
Summary: Supports early-stage eczema research by emerging investigators testing new concepts, pilot experiments, or data analyses.
Description
The NEA Engagement Grant is designed to fuel early-stage research in eczema by providing small-scale funding to emerging investigators. The grant supports self-contained projects that test innovative concepts, pilot new experiments, or explore novel data analyses. The goal is to generate preliminary data or insights that can serve as the basis for future, larger research proposals. Proposals should address at least one of the NEA’s research priorities: basic and translational science, eczema heterogeneity, innovations in clinical care, disease burden, or prevention strategies.
