New York Stem Cell Foundation

Applications are invited for the NYSCF – Robertson Neuroscience Investigator Awards to early career investigators in support of research in neuroscience. Applicants are invited to apply from all fields in neuroscience and need not be working in areas related to stem cells. NYSCF especially encourages applications from neuroscientists whose research areas may be under-supported by traditional funding mechanisms and/or underrepresented in the field as a whole.

Eligible applicants must have completed one or more of the following degrees: MD, PhD, DPhil. Please note that due to the current pandemic, NYSCF is extending its eligibility criterion to be within six years of starting a faculty (professorship) or comparable position on June 1, 2022. NYSCF will accept applications from researchers based at domestic and international accredited nonprofit research and academic institutions.
