Description
The COPD Catalyst Grant for Early Career Investigators competition promotes innovative research related to the diagnosis, treatment, and/or mechanism of disease for COPD.
Proposals should be creative and with the potential to benefit people living with this lung disease. The scope of the research proposal is restricted to lung disease, lung biology, and respiratory health.
Catalyst grants are scalable research projects that can include pilot studies, feasibility studies, or translational studies. Research projects must be new and not the continuation of an existing project.
Although the long-term goals for a project may extend beyond the means and timeline of this grant, the results of Catalyst projects should enable the development of funding proposals that are eligible for submission to national or international peer-reviewed competitions within 1 year after the end of the Catalyst grant.
