How do I access the form required to submit a proposal to NeuroNEXT?

Process for Solicitation and Review of Clinical Studies for NeuroNEXT

NeuroNEXT, a NINDS initiative to conduct Phase 2 trials in neurological conditions, receives proposals from academics, foundations and industry. All proposals are evaluated for mission relevance and institute priority by NINDS and for network feasibility by the NeuroNEXT Executive Committee (NEC). All proposals which are found to be mission relevant, feasible and of sufficient institute priority are referred to protocol working groups (PWG) for development of grant applications. The NINDS, NEC and PWG do not make any determination as to scientific merit; applicants should be aware that the fact that NeuroNEXT is submitting a proposal for review is no guarantee of funding approval. The scientific review of the proposal occurs after the grant application has been submitted for peer- and council-review. Funding decisions are made based on the results of those reviews.

Get Involved

Many patients, and family members, find that advocacy and support groups enhance the quality of life. As research projects are approved, information about these resources will be posted, and may be useful whether or not one wishes to participate in a NeuroNEXT study.
