Medical Research-Other is the Robert J. Kleberg, Jr. and Helen C. Kleberg Foundation’s separate route for medical research-related requests other than research studies. The application is made available on an individual case basis and requires an access code from Foundation staff. It is distinct from the Foundation’s Medical Research Study application.
The Foundation’s broader medical research priorities emphasize highly innovative, groundbreaking work in basic biological and applied research with potential for substantial impact on scientific knowledge and human health. It seeks distinctive ideas and novel approaches that question prevailing paradigms and advance knowledge. Proposals from top-tier institutions are highly competitive, with priority given to organizations with long-standing Foundation relationships, preferably in Texas. A scientific advisory committee reviews all proposals.
