Description
The CurePSP New Investigator Award grant program is designed to provide seed funding for early career investigators pursuing innovative research in progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) and corticobasal degeneration (CBD). The program aims to help researchers generate foundational data that will qualify them for larger-scale funding opportunities. Projects may focus on fundamental neurobiology, molecular and cellular mechanisms, or translational research accelerating the development of new therapeutics and biomarkers for PSP and CBD. Both U.S. and international applicants are eligible, provided they meet the early career criteria.
