Fund For Medical Discovery
The Johns Hopkins Fund for Medical Discovery (FMD) was established
to provide modest support for proposals typically not funded by extramural
agencies or other funding programs of the School of Medicine. The highest
priority will be given to proposals that clearly will lead to new extramural
grant applications for core resources, shared instrumentation, program-projects,
research centers, etc. The next application deadline is May 15, 2008.

http://www.autismspeaks.org/science/research/ The Damon Runyon-Rachleff Innovation Award is designed to provide support for the next generation of exceptionally creative thinkers with "high risk/high reward" ideas that have the potential to significantly impact our understanding of and/or approaches to the prevention, diagnosis or treatment of cancer. The Innovation award is specifically designed to
provide funding for extraordinary early career researchers who have an
innovative new idea but lack sufficient preliminary data to obtain traditional
funding. It is not designed to fund incremental advances. The research
supported by the award must be novel, exceptionally creative and, if successful,
have the strong potential for high impact in the cancer field. The award will be for a period of three years. Each
award will provide a total of $450,000 in direct costs. The Award cannot
be used for indirect costs or institutional overhead. The pre-proposal deadline is June 2, 2008.
