Grants - Fondation Jérôme Lejeune

Organisme

The Jerome Lejeune Foundation is the world’s oldest and largest funder of research into treatments for intellectual disabilities of genetic origin, especially, but not limited to, Down syndrome. The Foundation’s specific research interest is to discover a means to prevent and/or treat genetic intellectual disabilities in order to improve the memory, speech, and cognition of patients.

Objecte

The Jerome Lejeune Foundation will consider all proposals which have as their goal advancing scientific knowledge which leads to the discovery of treatments to improve the intellectual capacities of those affected by genetic illness.

Funding for research congresses and teaching programs may also be considered.
