Medical and Scientific Project Grants Program
Our extensive commitment to the health and safety of the world cannot be fully addressed through the number of Kirsch Investigator Awards that we are currently able to make each year. The project grants enable us to be flexible and responsive to individuals or institutions who find themselves needing funds at critical points in a research process, including seed grants, gap funding, or funding to complete projects.
Grants Awarded July 1, 1999 – June 30, 2000
Six organizations received seven grants totaling $700,000 during the year.
Focus for the Upcoming Year
With the hiring of a Director, Medical and Scientific Programs, we will become proactive in seeking out individuals and institutions who are leading researchers in specific basic biomedical topics. Funding the identification of Near-Earth Objects will remain our top scientific project priority.
