Overview
The Dr. Ralph and Marian Falk Medical Research Trust was created by Marian Falk in 1979 to support biomedical research. Mrs. Falk sought to fund “medical research to improve treatments of the past and eventually find cures for diseases for which no definite cure is known.”
Bank of America, N.A., serves as Trustee for the Falk Medical Research Trust. Health Resources in Action is pleased to manage the grantmaking for both the Falk Catalyst and Transformational Programs on behalf of Bank of America.
The Transformational Research Award provides 2-3 years of additional research funding up to $1M for successful projects funded by Catalyst Awards. Please click here for more information on the Catalyst Award Program.
The Transformational Award will continue to support successful Catalyst Award Recipients’ work, helping move a healthcare innovation toward the next step in commercial development, tackling critical scientific and therapeutic roadblocks, and opening new avenues for treating and curing disease.
Eligibility
Only Catalyst Awardees are eligible to apply for a Transformational Award. Applicants may apply during the final year of their Catalyst Award, or the year following. Please see the Falk Transformational Guidelines for a full list of eligibility criteria.
