Past Fellowship Grants
Once annually, Cure Autism Now (CAN) solicit proposals that advance the state of knowledge in critical areas of autism, from basic research to clinical.
Their goal is to support outstanding projects that involve innovative approaches and the application of cutting-edge technologies. Applications are encouraged both from scientists already focusing on autism and from those new to the field of autism. All proposals must have direct and immediate relevance to autism and related disorders. Scientific disciplines include, but are not limited to, animal models, biochemistry, cellular physiology, clinical research, developmental neurobiology, environmental factors, epidemiology, gastroenterology, genetics, immunology, microbiology, molecular biology, neural plasticity, neuroanatomy, neuroimaging, pathology, systems neuroscience, toxicology, and virology.
To promote rapid progress towards the discovery of effective treatments and a cure for autism and related disorders, we have, furthermore, established two funding mechanisms which are reviewed on a rolling basis: Autism Biomaterials Awards, and Treatment-Related Awards. We solicit proposals that advance the state of knowledge in critical areas of autism, from basic research to clinical applications.
