Grant Funding Program for Innovative Brain Tumor Studies in Georgia (USA)
GrantID: 75355
Grant Funding Amount Low: $50,000
Deadline: Ongoing
Grant Amount High: $50,000
Summary
This funding program is available to research professionals based in the United States (often affiliated with academic or medical institutions) whose work focuses on brain cancer and related areas. It is not directed toward nonprofits or small businesses or individuals working outside of scientific research. Rather, it is specifically for investigators seeking to conduct novel studies or pilot projects in the oncology or neuroscience space.
The funds are intended to support the core costs of research — materials, personnel, assays, experiments — rather than institutional overhead or administrative fees. Because of this, the grant supports direct activities that will help investigators generate data, refine methodologies, and establish proof-of-concept toward larger funding opportunities.
This opportunity offers a moderate award for a one-year term, typically in the low five-figure range. In some cases, an additional year of funding may be available for successful projects that meet specified benchmarks. The program is offered once each cycle, with a fixed application window (for example, fall of each year) and decisions made in the months following the deadline. Recipients must submit interim progress and final reports.
Only proposals that are tightly aligned with the research funder’s interests — brain tumor biology, treatment innovation, molecular or cellular investigations — will be competitive. The funder aims to back bold ideas, early-stage experiments, or collaborations that may not yet qualify for major grants elsewhere. Because competition is strong, applicants should clearly articulate the scientific rationale, feasibility, and projected impact of their work.
This is not a general grant for community groups, nonprofits, or individuals working outside scientific research; it is targeted, specialized, and meant to catalyze work in a narrow domain. If you like, I can help you assess whether your project fits or suggest how to position a proposal if you intend to apply.
Organizations and individuals based in Georgia who are engaged in Education may be eligible to apply for this funding opportunity. To discover more grants that align with your mission and objectives, visit The Grant Portal and explore listings using the Search Grant tool.
