1. Dystonia Coalition (DC) | DC Pilot Projects Program
The goal of the Pilot Projects Program is to foster the most promising clinical and translational studies of direct relevance to dystonia.
Applications must focus on clinical or translational projects with direct relevance to dystonia. The Dystonia Coalition is particularly interested in applicants focusing on projects that exploit data and/or resources already collected by the Dystonia Coalition and/or projects that encourage collaborations by involving different centers of the Dystonia Coalition, although independent projects related to dystonia are also welcome.
The programme is sponsored by the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), the Office of Rare Diseases Research (ORDR) in the National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS) and several patient advocacy groups. The grant has a value of up to $50,000. Indirect costs of up to 10% are eligible. Projects must be completed in one year.
