Exceptional, Unconventional Research Enabling Knowledge Acceleration (EUREKA) In the Epilepsies (R01)

Funding Contact(s): Brandy Fureman, Ph.D.
Funding Categories: Channels, Synapses and Circuits

Brief Description:
This FOA solicits Research Project Grant (R01) applications from institutions/organizations proposing exceptionally innovative research on novel hypotheses or difficult problems, solutions to which would have an extremely high impact on biomedical or biobehavioral research in the epilepsies. This FOA is for support of new projects, not continuation of projects that have already been initiated. It does not support pilot projects, i.e., projects of limited scope that are designed primarily to generate data that will enable the PD/PI to seek other funding opportunities. Interventional clinical trials are also not appropriate for this FOA.
