Ref.: (LML) The Leprosy Research Initiative
From: Nicole Dinnissen, NLR, Amsterdam, the Netherlands
Dear all,
The Leprosy Research Initiative (LRI) is pleased to announce a call for proposals for funding commencing in 2016 (see also LML December 21, 2014; correction date of submission) The LRI exclusively funds research on leprosy or that is strongly related to leprosy and welcomes proposals for all five LRI research priorities. Among the priorities of the LRI, research to 'Promote inclusion of persons affected by leprosy in society' is currently underrepresented. Therefore, the LRI will reserve €100,000 of the 2016 budget for pilot projects with a maximum total budget of €50,000 per project specifically for applications addressing inclusion research.
Researchers interested to apply for funding by the LRI are invited to complete and submit a Letter of Intent (LoI), giving an outline of the intended research. The LoI should use the format provided on the LRI website ( www.leprosyresearch.org/how-we-work ). Applications that do not follow this format will not be considered. An LoI may be submitted at any time during the year. However, to be considered for the budget round 2016, LoIs should be submitted by February 28th, 2015 at 24:00 (Amsterdam time and date) by email to the LRI Secretariat, c/o Ms. Nicole Dinnissen (info@leprosyresearch.org). This letter will be screened by the LRI Steering Committee (SC). If the feedback by the SC is positive, the applicants will be invited to submit a full proposal before the next deadline (June 1st 2015).
With kind regards,
Nicole Dinnissen
