Description
The Children's Tumor Foundation (CTF) Contract Award supports special, objective- and task-oriented neurofibromatosis (NF) research undertaken by academic researchers or for-profit entities. Unlike typical grants, these awards fund projects whose scope or requirements make them unsuitable for CTF's other funding mechanisms. The program advances CTF's commitment to finding effective therapies and a cure for NF.
Contract Awards can support innovative proposals outside the scope of CTF's other research programs, as well as extensions of existing awards that have grown beyond their original funding mechanism. Each project is governed by a negotiated contract with defined objectives, deliverables, and milestone-based payments. Proposals undergo extensive review before funding is approved.
