FELDSTEIN MEDICAL FOUNDATION

OUR MISSION:

The Feldstein Medical Foundation (FMF) is a private foundation, created to
promote and advance previously neglected areas of medical research.

FMF Funding Priorities:

FMF is particularly focused on funding:
- Research in previously underfunded areas.
- Researchers seeking initial funding or junior investigators (assistant professor
level) with history of prior funding.
- New or innovative research.
- Research where FMF grants will have the maximum beneficial impact.

FMF's grants will be made in varied areas of medical research, including, in order
of priority:
1. Basic science.
2. Translation/implementation studies.
3. Early clinical research.
4. Education.

FMF is based in the New York/New Jersey metropolitan area, thus the
Foundation will prioritize funding in this geographic area, however it will make
grants on a nationwide basis.

Budget and project period: FMF will fund individual projects on an annual
basis, issuing grants with a total annual cost of up to $75,000 (a maximum of
10% indirect costs may be included). Applicants may seek grants for periods of
either one or two years.

Eligibility: To be eligible to apply, investigators must be affiliated with United
States tax-exempt organizations, as described in IRS Code 501(c)(3).
