Our awards support novel projects with great potential to produce breakthroughs in development of novel treatment modalities, drugs and diagnostic tools for vitiligo.
VRF supports research projects, which have one of the following goals:
• to confirm a provisional or sensibly hypothetical mechanism of vitiligo pathogenesis, leading to development of novel therapies and diagnostic tools;
• to experimentally validate the perspective diagnostic methods, tools and treatments in vitiligo;
• to develop technically sound realization of novel diagnostic tools, methods and treatment modalities for vitiligo which are based on firm scientific and experimental ground.
VRF will also support projects with impact on current management of vitiligo patients.
Teams may be assembled from several institutions and should be comprised of highly experienced investigators capable of providing a solution to significant problem in vitiligo research. Typically ranging from $10,000 to $50,000 for up to 2 years, these awards will cover direct costs of the research.
Applications for funding are accepted upon announcing call for proposals. Please refer to CALL FOR PROPOSALS page to see open calls.
