Project Description

The Margaret Q. Landenberger Research Foundation (“the Foundation”) is a non-profit private foundation which focuses its support on promising early-stage medical researchers engaged in projects with the potential to result in understanding an important disease process or leading to a new therapeutic intervention. The ideal candidate is affiliated with an outstanding medical research institution and is working independently with the support of experienced mentors.  This is not a Mentored Award.  The goal is to assist these individuals by funding their current research, with the hope of enabling them to acquire more significant funding. The Foundation does not restrict support to any particular disease or medical condition.

Amount per award: $200,000
Duration of award: 2 Years

Eligibility

The Margaret Q. Landenberger award is intended for early stage investigators who have completed their terminal research degree or end of post-graduate clinical training, whichever date is later, within the past 10 years and who have not previously competed successfully as PD/PI for a substantial NIH independent research award (R01). PIs who have been awarded R03, R21, or K awards are eligible.

UW–Madison may submit one application.
