Grants: Apply for Funding

The Longevity Science Foundation funds groundbreaking efforts in human longevity.

The LSF prioritizes early-stage R&D projects that include preliminary data and demonstrate strong potential for translational impact within five years. We aim to bring forth novel and innovative treatments and approaches that meaningfully contribute towards healthy lifespan extension & chronic/age-related disease prevention. All submissions must align with the aforementioned directive; applications with tangential and indirect implications for healthy longevity will not be considered.

We also welcome proposals focused on the fundamental biology of aging. Please keep in mind that our primary interest lies in therapeutics, diagnostics, personalized medicine methodologies, preventative medicine, and AI-powered tools with a clear path toward future clinical application.

Each funding call includes a link at the bottom of its section that directs you to the letter of intent (LOI) questionnaire. This form will request only basic details about your proposal. The entire review process consists of three stages: LOI review, full proposal review, and Scientific Advisory Board evaluation. Our team will notify you of your LOI status within two months from submission. If successful, you will be asked to provide a comprehensive project overview. The LSF team will then review the overview and provide an update within two months. Successful projects will be vetted by the Scientific Advisory Board. Final funding decisions will be made by our Governance Board.

Application Process

While we prioritize applications with translational impact and innovation, ensuring information accessibility is central to our mission. Proposals that do not include details on how they address information accessibility will not be considered.

The Foundation is committed to maintaining the confidentiality and security of data provided by applicants. We will not share your data without prior consent unless required by law.

The LSF is looking to provide funding of up to $200,000 for each successful application. For proposals submitted after December 1, 2024, financial support will be limited to direct costs, exclusive of salaries.

Information Accessibility

Upon selection, we will work closely with the chosen team to develop a tailored funding schedule that aligns with their specific needs and project requirements. Funds will be disbursed in installments rather than as a lump sum to ensure ongoing support throughout the project's duration.
