Huntington’s Disease Foundation (HDF) (formerly Hereditary Disease Foundation): Transformative Research Award – competitive LOI

To advance transformational collaborative projects to provide new insights into disease mechanisms or create or implement tools and technologies not previously applied to Huntington’s disease research for the advancement of therapeutics. General areas include but are not limited to: whether modulation of somatic repeat instability is disease modifying, whether and how cellular, biochemical or molecular insights in HD systems are predictive of disease, or how to apply unexplored therapeutics for clinical application (inclusive of biomarkers). Projects that discover disease modifying targets and incorporate novel tools or technologies are encouraged. Projects must justify how results could ultimately connect to therapies.

Funding: $300K-$500K per year for up to a two-year period.
