MRF and AMD Announce Joint 2017 Request for Proposals

MRF and AMD ANNOUNCE JOINT 2017 REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS

The Migraine Research Foundation (MRF) and the Association of Migraine Disorders (AMD) announce the opening of a joint Request for Proposals for migraine research grants. MRF is committed to discovering the causes, improving the treatments, and finding a cure, and AMD stimulates increased research specifically in the area of migraine disorders. We are looking for projects that will help sufferers by advancing our ability to understand and treat migraine. As a result, we provide seed money grants for transfor

mational projects that will ultimately lead to better treatment and quality of life for sufferers of migraine and migraine disorders.

While we welcome all proposals relevant to basic or clinical migraine research, we are particularly interested in translational projects and those related to migraine variants, childhood migraine, and chronic migraine.

If you are interested in applying for a grant, complete the application found at MigraineResearchFoundation.org. If you have any questions, call us in New York at 212-249-5402, or email us at research@MigraineResearchFoundation.org.
