The Preeclampsia Foundation is a non-profit organization dedicated to funding research, raising public awareness, and providing support and education for those whose lives have been touched by preeclampsia and other hypertensive diseases of pregnancy. In the spring of 2008, we will be accepting applications for the Preeclampsia Foundation Vision Grant Awards. This year we will be awarding up to four grants; each up to $25,000.

Vision Grants are small awards and intended to provide initial funding for innovative ideas which might otherwise not be pursued due to lack of funding. While preliminary data is not required, careful development of hypothesis based on existing information is expected. While these awards are ideal for young investigators, they are not limited to young investigators. They should, however, be directed towards novel rather than well established lines of research.
 

Please email applications to the Foundation's Executive Director:
jtviall.execdir@preeclampsia.org

If the grant proposal is part of a larger project, the application should address a budget for the entire project with reference to portions that are and are not currently funded.

Thank you for your interest in the treatment of preeclampsia.

Sincerely,

Thomas R. Easterling, MD
