The Foundation for Prader-Willi Research (FPWR) announces the availability of funds to support innovative Prader-Willi syndrome PWS research.  FPWR is particularly interested in supporting projects that will lead to new treatments to alleviate the symptoms associated with PWS. 
Funding priorities include:

• Genotype to phenotype: understanding PWS genetics / how loss of PWS-critical region genes leads to the phenotype
• Neurobiology of hunger / feeding behavior in PWS
• Neurobiology of cognitive deficits, maladaptive behavior and mental illness in PWS
• Clinical care research: evaluation of existing drugs and interventions to improve health and quality of life in PWS
• Therapeutics development for PWS- Genetic therapies; novel pharmaceuticals; drug repurposing for PWS
