Ono Pharma Breakthrough Science Initiative AwardHarvard Pre-Proposal Deadline: January 27, 2020 by 10:00amAward Amount: $300,000/year for up to 3 years

The Ono Pharma Foundation's 2020 Breakthrough Science Initiative Awards Program accepts proposals from Principal Investigators involved in original research of Chemical Biology. Chemical Biology is defined as research that deals with the interface between chemistry and biology. The criteria for this field are deliberately broad so as not to disqualify potentially innovative and groundbreaking projects. To be eligible, the PI must be a young and/or mid-career scientist (with 15 years or below less experience from starting an independent academic position). The PI may not already be engaged in other sponsored research with Ono Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. and/or other grant programs with the Ono Pharma Foundation. The PI may not apply for funding to amplify current work. However, PIs may research a new idea based on a prior finding.
