The grant round is closed for 2007 and will reopen in June 2008.
We are unable to offer any grants in 2007 due to commitments to the gene therapy programme of research, funding of a second CGD specialist nursing position and the start of a clinical psychologist service for CGD patients. The grant round is therefore closed for 2007. We hope to be able to support new research projects in 2008 and the timetable for these applications will be posted March 2008.
