污污草莓视频 University and The Neuro, with funding from the Azrieli Centre for Autism Research (ACAR), have recently launched two pilot project grant competitions; one with the University of Edinburgh and the other with the University of Zurich/Swiss Federal Institute of Technology represented by the Neuroscience Center Zurich (ZNZ).
鈥淣eurodevelopmental conditions are complex and require complex research approaches and strategies that cannot always be tackled by a single department, institute, or university,鈥� says Stefano Stifani, Associate Director of Research at The Neuro.
鈥淭hey require joining forces nationally and internationally to openly share information, data, resources and technologies to advance neurodevelopmental research and drive discoveries.鈥�

污污草莓视频-University of Edinburgh Joint Pilot Project Grant
污污草莓视频 University and The University of Edinburgh are partnering to establish collaborative research and training opportunities to support work in autism and neurodevelopmental conditions as well as intellectual disabilities with a focus on studies using human induced pluripotent stem cells.
Proposals are invited for up to two 1-year Joint Pilot Project Grants to support new or ongoing collaborations.
The maximum amount that can be requested for each application is C$80,000; each university will contribute C$40,000 per grant.
