NEW Funding Opportunity - Lupus Research Institute - 2012 Distinguished Innovators Awards

The Lupus Research Institute invites applications for Distinguished Innovator Awards, a new global funding program that will run in parallel with our established Novel Research Grant program.  Distinguished Innovator Awards will provide outstanding scientists with up to US $1 million to conduct novel research into the fundamental causes of lupus and lay the groundwork for a cure. Scientists who have not previously worked in lupus are encouraged to apply, as are researchers working outside of the US.

Deadline for Letter of Intent: February 29, 2012
Deadline for Applications:  April 2, 2012

Now offering two unique grant programs, the LRI is the world’s leading private supporter of novel research in lupus.
