Purpose and Duration

The purpose of our project grants is to support a single project designed to answer a single question or a small group of related questions about some aspect of Parkinson’s disease. Applications are invited for project grants of up to 3 years.

 Eligibility

Grants are tenable only at a United Kingdom University, NHS Trust, statutory Social Care organisation or other research institution. All Principle Applicants should hold employment contracts that extend beyond the period of the grant. The duration of a grant is usually two to three years. Extension of a grant beyond three years is exceptional and requires formal re-application.
