Individual Research Grant Program
At the forefront of molecular and cellular studies, the Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation's Individual Research Grant Program is the largest, most comprehensive research initiative. Most recently, the Foundation awarded 8 new Individual Research Grants. The Foundation has committed over $86 million toward research since 1982.
Each of the Reeve grant recipients will use the money to fund research that supports investigator-initiated research on a variety of fronts, including axon growth and guidance, remyelination, cellular replacement, rehabilitation and neuroprotection.
