Human Disease Research: Stage Two Application for Experimental Medicine Studies

This funding opportunity supports academically-led research projects investigating the causes, progression, and treatment of human disease through controlled experimental medicine studies. Applicants must propose projects with a clear mechanistic hypothesis and include an experimental intervention or challenge conducted in human participants. All proposed interventions or challenges must have well-established safety profiles. This is a stage two application, indicating that preliminary feasibility or concept stage work has already been completed. Eligible researchers should be prepared to demonstrate scientific merit, study design rigor, and participant safety protocols in their applications.
