Description
The Muscular Dystrophy Association’s Development Grants support postdoctoral investigators conducting meritorious research on neuromuscular diseases. The program aims to expand the number of scientists working in this field by funding researchers in the laboratory of a senior investigator.
Under that investigator’s guidance, grantees have flexibility to work independently or as part of a collaborative effort. The grants are intended to help postdoctoral researchers develop their work and scientific direction while contributing to neuromuscular disease research.
