We're thrilled to announce the upcoming LRI calls for proposals, launching in December 2024. Here’s what’s on the horizon:

• The LRI Regular Grant will be open for projects commencing in 2026, inviting applications for research projects across all LRI research priority areas, with preference given to applications focusing on reactions and nerve function impairment.
  
  
• The RESILIENTD Grant, in collaboration with Anesvad Foundation, will open for a new round of applications. This grant focuses on the social determinants of health within the context of skin NTDs, including leprosy, with an emphasis on sub-Saharan Africa.
  
  
• The Research Capacity Strengthening Grant will also return after its successful debut last year. This grant aims to fund innovative short projects led by early-career researchers. With a more compact review period, awarded projects will commence in the second half of 2025.

Stay tuned for detailed info on eligibility, timelines, and submission deadlines in early December. We look forward to receiving strong research proposals with high potential for positive impact.
