Sandler Program for Asthma Research : Asthma Research Program

SPAR's mission to develop important new pathways of investigation in basic research on the pathogenesis of asthma. Because the program seeks groundbreaking ideas, outstanding investigators from outside the field of asthma are particularly encouraged to apply. Preliminary results are not required. The application is brief, and there is a quick turnaround time for review. Investigators with prior experience in asthma research are eligible to apply, but they must demonstrate that the proposed work represents a departure from their current and past research. Another important objective of the Program is to promote scientific interaction between Awardees. To faciliate this, an Annual Meeting of Awardees is held.
