Dioraphte supports scientific research in the field of rare diseases, neglected tropical diseases and food security.
In the field of rare diseases and neglected tropical diseases, we issue calls for research proposals. For food security we do not accept unsolicited project proposals.
The 3rd Call for Proposals on Rare Diseases - CFP-RD2024 - is now open.
Only national centers of expertise on rare diseases in The Netherlands can apply.
Here you can find more information on the CFP-RD2024 call.
