Purpose of the FundConsistent with the original intent of the donor, Mr. E.W. "Al" Thrasher, the Thrasher Research Fund provides grants for pediatric medical research. Because significant solutions for many children's health problems remain undiscovered, the Fund invites a broad array of applications. The Thrasher Research Fund seeks to foster an environment of creativity and discovery aimed at finding solutions to children's health problems. The Fund awards grants for research that offers substantial promise for meaningful advances in prevention and treatment of children's diseases, particularly research that offers broad-based applications.
Interested researchers may contact one of the Research Managers to discuss how specific research ideas might fit within the Fund's current interests. |
