Well-Being in FTD Pilot Grants provide seed funding for innovative, early-stage research projects with the potential to increase understanding and improve the diagnosis or treatment of frontotemporal degeneration across the full spectrum of FTD disorders: behavioral variant FTD, primary progressive aphasia, progressive supranuclear palsy, corticobasal syndrome, and FTD-ALS.

The Well-Being in FTD Pilot Grant supports projects that seek to develop non-pharmacological, evidence-based interventions for improving daily quality of life for people living with FTD and their families, mitigating caregiver burden, or advancing person-centered approaches to FTD care in out-of-homesettings.
Proposals that focus on strategies to support telemedicine or assist caregivers in meeting the unique challenges imposed by the emergence of COVID-19 are especially encouraged.
Examples of research areas suitable for the Well-Being in FTDPilot Grant include (but are not limited to)
Interventions to alleviate symptoms or support cognitive, behavioral, language, or movement functionality, resulting in an improved quality of life for persons diagnosed with an FTD disorder
Novel technologies or technology-assisted approaches to facilitate remote diagnosis and clinical care
Development and validation of remote monitoring, symptom-tracking technologies such as clinical grade apps, biosensors, or wearables
Caregiver interventions to promote psychological or physical health and well-being
Interventions to alleviate the impact of infection-control measures such as social distancing or changes in/access to support services
Lifestyle modification strategies addressing FTD concerns that can be utilized in home or in out-of-homesettings
Collaborative care approaches integrating home care with treatment provided in the clinical setting
Proposals that specifically target the needs of under-served or under-represented minority populations living with FTD.
