MMV Call for Proposals for African scientists: Malaria drug development grant
Medicines for Malaria Venture (MMV) welcomes proposals for the Malaria drug development grant under the 6th African call for proposals.
Eligibility:
Proposals should be from endemic region African scientists focused in the following priority areas:
- Compounds with confirmed activity on any antimalarial life-cycle stage: Novel molecules meeting the MMV Confirmed Active criteria and a medicinal chemistry plan that tackles any known or anticipated liability.
- Assay development and screening: Assay development and screening to support discovery or development of novel antimalarials. Priority will be given to proposals that maximize use of local, field isolates.
- Computer aided drug discovery: Use of computational approaches (cheminformatic and/or bioinformatic) to discover new molecules with predicted antimalarial activity or new antimalarial drug targets.
