Notes
[Transformative Basic Science] Grant investigators: Heather Youngs and Chris Somerville This page was reviewed but not written by the grant investigator. Life Sciences Research Foundation staff also reviewed this page prior to publication. Open Philanthropy recommended a grant of $585,000 to the Life Sciences Research Foundation to support early-career investigators. The funds will support three postdoctoral fellows for three years apiece. The fellows have proposed research projects investigating viral pathogenesis and the neural control of behavior. This follows our April 2019 support. It falls within our work on scientific research, specifically within our interest in advancing transformative basic science.
