The Hereditary Disease Foundation announces a special Lieberman Award,
to catalyze innovative proposals leading to the treatment and cure of
Huntington's disease. A Lieberman Award can be funded for two years for up to
$75,000 per year.
Areas of interest include trinucleotide expansions, animal models,
gene therapy, neurobiology and development of the basal ganglia, cell survival
and death, and intercellular signaling in striatal neurons.
Anyone accepting funding from the Hereditary Disease Foundation must
agree to abide by the following policy: Propagatable materials (including
monoclonal antibodies and recombinant DNAs) should be freely available to other
investigators following publication. The Foundation's position is that there be
no restrictions or proprietary rights in materials produced with our
support.
