Cystic Fibrosis - Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Award

Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

About the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation

The mission of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is to cure cystic fibrosis and to provide all people with CF the opportunity to lead long, fulfilling lives by funding research and drug development, partnering with the CF community, and advancing high-quality, specialized care.

To achieve this mission, various types of grants and awards are offered to support meritorious research in CF.

Program and Award Overview

Postdoctoral research fellowships are offered for support of postdoctoral research training related to CF. These awards are intended to enable research training in new research areas and methods to advance the scientific knowledge of the applicant and to collect data to enable their transition into an independent research career. Research projects proposed through this program should seek to improve our understanding of disease pathogenesis or development of novel treatment approaches on topics such as defects in airway defense, microbial adaption to the CF lung, mucociliary clearance and airway hydration, and extrapulmonary manifestations of the disease. Applicants seeking to submit proposals focused on topics such as the restoration of CFTR protein function or approaches to fix/replace the defective CFTR gene should apply through the Path to a Cure Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Award Program.

Specialties

Pulmonology

Eligibility Requirements

Candidates must be U.S. citizens, permanent residents, or non-residents working in a U.S.-based laboratory.
Postdoctoral applicants engaged in or planning CF-related research are eligible. Preference will be given to recent graduates and those just beginning their research careers and those with a clear commitment to CF research.
Applicants can apply for this fellowship anytime during their postdoctoral period. However, funding levels are based on the year when the award is made, not the year of the applicant’s fellowship.
Candidates who are clinical fellows should apply to the CFF Clinical Fellowship program for the appropriate year. Please refer to the Policies and Guidelines of the Clinical Fellowship programs on the CFF website at www.cff.org.
Fellowships are awarded on the basis of individual and institutional merit. Awards are not transferable to other individuals or institutions unless previously approved by the CFF Program Director.
Applications should focus on one or more of the research areas of interest outlined in Section VI below.
Fellowships are intended to support mentored training to enable awardees to be competitive for independent, faculty positions. For awardees who obtain a faculty position before the end of their 2- year, please contact the CFF Program Director to determine if part of your award may be eligible to be converted to a P&F for the remainder of the funding period.
