The Foundation invites proposals for Angelman syndrome-related research projects. One- and two-year grants of up to $100,000 per year will be awarded, with priority given to projects focused on studying or correcting the heterozygous effect of non-UBE3A genes in deletion, the potential results of increasing UBE3A after therapies or for some subtypes of AS, projects studying delivery of therapies and potential for improvement, and symptomatic therapies that impact the daily life of people with Angelman syndrome and their families.
APF’s John and Polly Sparks Early Career Grant for Psychologists Investigating Serious Emotional Disturbance awards grants of up to $22,000 to early-career psychologists conducting research in early intervention and treatment for serious emotional disturbance in children.
Eligibility:
Applicants must be early-career (no more than 10 years postdoctoral).
The Fund invites applications for its Climate Change and Human Health Seed Grants program, which aims to stimulate the growth of new connections between thinkers working in largely disconnected fields who could together change the course of climate change’s impact on human health. Small, early-stage grants of between $2,500 and $50,000 will be awarded through the program.
The Foundation invites applications from investigators at nonprofit institutions in the United States who are working to identify new treatments or cures for cancer. The foundation encourages one-year proposals that enable new cancer researchers to establish their capabilities or established cancer researchers to create new approaches. The foundation anticipates that this early-stage funding may lead to subsequent and expanded support from a government agency or other source. Project relevance to cancer detection, treatment, or cure should be clearly identified.
Eligibility:
Postdoctoral research investigators on the tenure track with a tenured mentor are eligible to apply.
The Foundation invites applications for its Emerging Leader Awards program, which will award grants of up to $750,000 over three years to outstanding early-career investigators in support of high-impact, high-risk projects that are distinct from their current research portfolio. Projects for this award must be centered on evidence-based laboratory, data, and/or medical science.
Eligibility:
Applicants must be three-to-eight years from the start of an independent faculty research appointment as of December 31, 2025.
Grants of up to $25,000 will be awarded in support of individual research projects in anthropology or a closely related field. The program aims to support vibrant and significant work that furthers our understanding of what it means to be human, and there is no preference for any methodology, research location, topic, or subfield. The foundation particularly welcomes proposals that integrate two or more subfields and pioneer new approaches and ideas.
Eligibility:
There are no eligibility restrictions.
Dates:
Proposals are due by May 1, 2025.
