Santa Barbara, CA, March 11, 2024 - Global Parents for Eczema Research (GPER) today announced the release of its Childhood Eczema Prevention Grant aimed at supporting innovative research studies focused on preventing pediatric atopic dermatitis (AD or "eczema"). This funding announcement is aimed at addressing the increasing prevalence of AD among children and at fostering research initiatives with the potential to mitigate the burden on children and families.

"We are dedicated to advancing knowledge and strategies that can help prevent childhood eczema and halt the rise in suffering that parallels the increasing prevalence," said Korey Capozza, Executive Director of GPER. "Through our 2024 grantmaking program, we aim to support innovative approaches to primary and secondary prevention of AD."

The Childhood Eczema Prevention Grant prioritizes two areas that have shown promise in preventing AD and other allergic conditions: gut microbiome modulation during prenatal and postnatal periods and early topical therapy in infancy. The 2024 grants will also support patient-centered research questions.

"We are particularly interested in research proposals that not only contribute to scientific knowledge but also resonate with the concerns and interests of patients and families affected by eczema," said Capozza.

GPER will award up to three grants, each up to USD$25,000, for the 2024 funding cycle.

Applications for the Childhood Eczema Prevention Grant are now open. Interested parties should submit a one-page Letter of Intent by April 30th, 2024 . For more information and to apply, visit www.gper.org/grants.
