Funding-Horses and Human Research Foundation; May 15, 2015

 

Description

 

Through investment in rigorous research, the Horses and Humans Research Foundation serves as a catalyst for the advancement of knowledge of horses and their potential to affect the health and wellness of humans.

 

To advance this mission, the foundation is inviting Letters of Intent from nonprofit organizations for its 2015 Innovative Research grants program. Through the annual program, grants of up to $10,000 will be awarded for research projects focused on novel ideas that bridge the gaps in our understanding of horse-human interactions.

 

Projects should challenge existing paradigms, present an innovative hypothesis, or address a critical barrier that exists in the field. Projects also should address an important problem directly related to the study of horse-human interaction and/or the impact of horses on the wellness of people.

 

Proposals are encouraged from all disciplines that may contribute to our understanding of horses and their potential to impact the health and wellness of people.  These include but are not limited to biological, behavioral, medical, epidemiological, psychological, clinical and multidisciplinary investigations.
