Promising new scientists encouraged to apply for a Young Investigator Grant
The NEDA Young Investigator Research Grants application process is closed.
Young Investigator Grants have been possible through the generous donations from individuals, foundations and/or corporations. Since 2002, NEDA and the Academy for Eating Disorders (AED) have invested in the future of a dozen promising new scientists leveraging over $237,500 to advance eating disorder research. Research grant awards range from $7,500 to $10,000 per scientist and depend on the amount of funds raised in the previous year.
If you or a foundation/corporation you know would like to invest in the future of a promising young scientist you can donate now with our secure, online giving center.
