About this program
The Mechanisms of Cellular Death in NeuroDegeneration (MCDN) Research Grant, sponsored by the Alzheimer's Association, Alzheimer's Research UK, and the Weston Brain Institute, aims to unravel the mysteries of brain cell loss in neurodegenerative diseases. With a focus on collaborative and interdisciplinary research, the grant seeks proposals exploring brain cell death mechanisms, signaling pathways, and the role of abnormal proteins.
Eligible applicants include academic research labs or consortia, and small biotech/SME organizations in collaboration with academic labs. Researchers with full-time appointments and post-doctoral fellows with a full-time faculty investigator as the lead are encouraged to apply, with a total sum of up to USD$1.25 million available over three years.
