Grant Programme
1. ROTRF Grant Awards
|
Conventional Research Grants: For research projects relevant to solid organ transplantation. |
|
Clinical Research Grants: For clinical research projects (e.g. projects proposing work with human clinical material, organ transplant patients, human organ preservation, human transplant pathology, and other human transplant problems) with a realistic potential for near term clinical application.. Please note that the ROTRF cannot fund interventional clinical trials and projects involving interventions that would add risk to the patient or alter patient management. However, the Trustees may consider for funding scientific studies associated with a completely separated clinical trial. More information about the programme >> Go to Letter of Intent Submission >> |
2. Joint ROTRF/JDRF* Grant Awards
|
|
For research projects that are relevant to both type 1 diabetes and transplantation |
|
The Roche Organ Transplantation Research Foundation (ROTRF) and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International (JDRF) launched in 2006 a Joint ROTRF/JDRF Initiative to support projects in immunology and biology research relevant to pancreatic islet transplantation, and transplantation solutions for human type 1 diabetes. Investigators working in the fields of immunology and cell biology, gene therapy, cellular engineering, stem cell research (e.g. generation of islet/beta cell source from stem cells or other cell sources, novel interventions leading to immune tolerance) and other approaches that are relevant to both type 1 diabetes and transplantation, are strongly encouraged to apply. *Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation International More information about the programme >> Go to Letter of Intent Submission >> |
