CUREBOUND GRANTS

Curebound funds three levels of cancer research grants. For information on our annual grant cycle and application process, please contact our Grants Department via rahul@curebound.org

Discovery Grants

One-time seed grants of up to $250,000 for high-risk/high-reward, translational research. Ideas are innovative and in the early phases where smaller grants can make a big impact in advancing research.

Targeted Grants

Larger gifts of $500,000 that aim to fund projects that are closer to clinical stages. Targeted Grants require a clinical researcher to be part of the collaborative team in order to ensure the project is geared toward translational application.

Cure Prizes

Innovative, multi-disciplinary projects that receive major funding of $1,000,000+ to be administered over multiple years. The first Cure Prize challenge is to develop an innovation that will improve the standard of care for a typically deadly cancer with patient application in 3-5 years.
