INFORMATION FOR RESEARCHERS The Society is a member of the Association of Medical Research Charities (AMRC). All projects submitted to us for funding are peer-reviewed to ensure that: The project has scientific merit, is in keeping with our research strategy and is likely to lead to a greater understanding of A-T The proposed study is not a duplicate of another current or recent research project The Society is spending its research funds in the best possible way. The types of award available are normally postgraduate studentships, equipment grants, A-T conferences and travel awards. The majority of our research funds are directed to specific projects at The Cancer Research UK Institute for Cancer Studies, University of Birmingham, under the direction of Professor A M R Taylor who is the UK’s leading researcher into A-T. Currently the Society is funding one research project at the Institute. This is to support a clinical research fellow investigating links between A-T mutations and the severity of the disease. However if funds are available we do support other A-T research projects in keeping with our strategy. Should you wish to apply for funds from the Society please first read the Society’s research strategy. If you feel your project does fall within this remit please phone Maureen Poupard, Trustee, A-T Society on 01582 760733 or email to: atsociety@btconnect.com for an informal discussion. At present there are no fixed closing dates for project submission. |
