Request for Proposals: Creative Computational Approaches to Accelerate Drug Discovery for the Treatment and Prevention of Dementia
Current methods of drug discovery have had limited success at predicting clinical efficacy of investigational therapies in patients with Alzheimer’s disease and other age-related dementias. Computational modeling, systems biology and pharmacology, and translational bioinformatics represent a tremendous yet relatively under-developed opportunity to accelerate and improve this process particularly for dementias. The Alzheimer’s Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) program on Aging & Alzheimer’s Disease Prevention is requesting proposals for innovative computational approaches to map disease a...

Call for Proposals: NCL Research Award for Research on Batten Disease
The NCL Foundation provides regulary the NCL research award. The goal is to find a cure against the deadly children's disease Neuronal Ceroid Lipofuscinosis (NCL), also called Batten disease. This metabolic disorder is the most common neurodegenerative disease of childhood and is inevitably fatal. The gradual stages of the suffering are blindness, dementia, epilepsy, loss of speech, paralysis and complete helplessness. We invite medical and basic science researchers worldwide to submit innovative clinical oriented or translational basic science projects, which can contribute to finding a cure for juvenile NCL....
