Applying For A Grant – The CART Fund Fundraisers/Special Events Fundraisers/Special Events The goal of CART is to encourage exploratory and developmental AD research projects within the United States by providing support for the early and conceptual plans of those projects that may not yet be supported by extensive preliminary data, but have the potential to substantially advance biomedical research.
Since 1999, the fund has awarded over $15 million to research centers from throughout the U.S.A. The CART Fund invites interested applicants from within the United States only to submit a Letter-of-Intent (LOI) that includes sufficient detail to communicate the importance of your study as well as information on its feasibility.
Proposals should be distinct from those projects designed to increase knowledge in a well-established area unless it is intended to extend previous discoveries toward new directions or applications. Applications may encompass a project period of up to two years with a combined budget for direct costs up to $500,000. No indirect costs are allowed.
Full-time faculty (or the equivalent status) at US-based public and private institutions, such as universities, colleges, hospitals and laboratories are eligible. This is for NEW projects only. Applications will be deemed ineligible from for-profit and organizations outside of the United States, as well as those already supported by regular or program grants.
CART typically awards 4-6 grants per year, and will award at least one top grant of $500,000 in 2026.
