FYI Digest Newsletter Back Issues 9. This initiative will establish Exploratory Program Grants for Frontier Medicine Research, the purpose of which will be to create an infrastructure to nurture and therefore advance this field of biomedical research by providing the institutional support and resources necessary for rigorous scientific investigation. The Exploratory Program Grants will serve to develop the fields in ways that will increase the likelihood that efficacious therapeutic paradigms will emerge from the existing Frontier Medicine approaches, and thus increase the probability that some of these will become integrated with and will make a contribution to interdisciplinary healthcare. Applicants may request up to three years of support.
Future increases are limited to three percent per year.
