Description
At the Rainin Foundation, we support high-risk research and challenge investigators to push boundaries to advance our goal of predicting and preventing Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD). The Innovator Awards program provides up to $200,000 grants for one-year research projects. Recipients who demonstrate significant progress may receive up to two additional years of support.
Through the Innovator Awards, we invest in new and veteran IBD researchers alike and embrace novel, untested ideas. Our funding interests span the spectrum of basic, translational and clinical science. Visit our online resource to learn more about the researchers we support.
To date, we have funded the following areas through Innovator Awards:
- -Bioengineering
- -Diet and Nutrition

- -Fecal Microbiota Transplant
- -Immunity and Inflammation
- -Microbiome
- -Therapeutic Development and Delivery
