The research project should include a well-formulated, testable hypothesis based on strong scientific rationale and a well-developed and articulated research approach. Personnel on the proposed team should have a strong background in BMF disease research. This funding opportunity is open to Established Investigators (EIs) and Early-Career Investigators (ECIs).
