The new Henry and Marilyn Taub Foundation (HMTF) Pilot award will provide seed money to pursue transformative ideas that can forge new scientific directions and strategies in MDS research.

The one-year award provides $100,000 for proof-of-concept studies addressing critical roadblocks to understanding MDS and its treatment.

Successful projects will generate preliminary data needed to support their extension and expansion through other funding mechanisms. The research must be non-incremental and may include high-risk/high-reward or collaborative efforts to incorporate new technologies and approaches from other fields.
