Description

Let’s Get Proof is a medical research crowdfunding platform, looking to make medical research more efficient, inclusive, and impactful. For early-career researchers, female researchers, researchers from a less established institution, and others, winning a grant is challenging. Many of the best research ideas get lost, and many high-potential researchers never have the chance to pursue a research career. Our aim in Let’s Get Proof is to level the playing field and put the researcher in the driving seat. Researchers can upload proposals publicly to the platform, tell the story of why it is important, and build a community of both fellow researchers, as well as interested non-researchers, that can financially back the project to get it funded.

Funding consists of a single payment of $25,000. The grant is open to any healthcare researcher with a verifiable affiliation with a research university However, the grant is primarily intended for earl-career investigators.
