2022 Grant Cycle Starts Now!

Log in to Proposal Central and search for the TSC Alliance 2022 Research Grant and Postdoctoral Fellowship program now.

The TSC Alliance is dedicated to finding a cure for tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC) while improving the lives of those affected. We invest in early-career researchers to drive innovative TSC research and to foster a diverse group of researchers dedicated to our shared mission. In 2022, we anticipate awarding three or four awards to postdoctoral fellows and early-stage investigators depending on merit, requested budgets, and funds available. A description of research funded previously is available on the TSC Alliance grants webpage.

New for 2022: Special Funding Opportunity!

Wong Family Foundation Research Award

Thanks to generous support from the Wong Family Foundation, the TSC Alliance is proud to offer a new funding opportunity as part of our regular research grant and postdoctoral fellowship cycle for 2022. This special two-year award will be designated to the most meritorious application focusing on epilepsy research. All epilepsy-focused Postdoctoral Fellowship and Research Grant candidates will automatically be considered for the Wong Family Foundation Award, so no additional information is required during the application process.

• Areas of emphasis for a project designated the Wong Family Foundation Research Award may include (but are not limited to):

  • Basic research in mechanisms relating to intractability, e.g., multi-drug resistant epilepsy

  • Model development (especially for infantile spasms or intractable epilepsy)

  • New technologies related to epilepsy (imaging, electrophysiology, etc.)
