Característiques principals
  • Autumn calls for proposals (submission from mid-June to early August) are exclusively dedicated to research on Down syndrome research with Advanced and Pilot/exploratory grants

    Two types of research projects may be submitted and will be separately evaluated by the scientific board experts or external reviewers if needed for each call:
  • Pilot or exploratory grants For early stage research projects built on preliminary data or small projects that complement larger primary projects.
  • Advanced grants For larger breakthrough projects with substantial preliminary data.

    Research proposals should cover at least one of the following areas:
  • Innovative fundamental research addressing the aetiology, pathogenesis and progression of the studied disease(s) condition and will generate new relevant knowledge of the disease(s).
  • Translational research answering a question of major interest that can have a positive impact on the health of patients.
  • Clinical research including early phase clinical studies, ancillary studies based on initiated or completed clinical trials, and studies involving patients in the pathophysiological analysis of their disease. These studies should generate novel strategies for diagnosis, therapy and/or rehabilitation.
  • Epidemiological studies including case-control, cohort, cross-sectional and intervention studies.
  • Neuropsychology studies and development or application of new techniques.
