Introduction

LUPUS UK is an established grant making charity, recognised by the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) as a non-commercial partner funding research of clear value to the NHS as a result of open competition with high quality peer review. In comparison with some other organisations, LUPUS UK currently does not have sufficient money available for large-scale trials, having available £100,000 in total each year: it will therefore look to support applications which focus on the following:

smaller pilot studies, which will lead to applications to major funders for large-scale research trials
enabling grants for basic science support, which would enable larger projects by providing essential data for large grant applications
medical meetings, which would facilitate improvements to the understanding of the causes, prevention and treatment of lupus, and its research

LUPUS UK is willing to work collaboratively with other charities where research interests overlap. LUPUS UK will not fund individual institutions, long-term career posts, travel or open access publication costs.

Applications for funding are peer reviewed twice each year in the Spring and in the Autumn with the final decisions being advised during May and November. Application forms along with the LUPUS UK Conditions of Grant can be downloaded from this site and 17 copies should be submitted, by post, to LUPUS UK at least one month before the Peer Review Panel meets. Please contact LUPUS UK National Office to confirm dates.
