About the Website

​

Our Website is structured as follows:

  • Sections presenting informative content about us, such as our team and vision. These sections are publicly accessible to all users visiting our Website (“Website Visitors”).

  • Application forms through which researchers may apply for an opportunity to receive one of our grants.

  • “Journal Club” - a virtual, video-conference meet-up in which articles are presented by researchers followed by a commentary on the topic by experts in the field. This section shall be accessible by password.

​

Grants

​

To be considered for a grant, you must apply through our designated online applications forms. We will indicate the mandatory fields for completion. If you do not provide the required information in these fields, you will not be able to apply.

​

As we process your application, and thereafter, following your receipt of the grant (if confirmed), we may request additional information, documentation and materials from you, as we, in our discretion, deem necessary. If you decline to provide the additional information, documentation and materials we request, or if you fail to provide them within the timeframe we request, you will not be able to apply, or if you have already been admitted – we may suspend or terminate your grant.

​

You must provide true, accurate and complete information, and you are fully accountable for any outcome that may result from your failure to do so.

​

Once we complete processing, evaluating and considering your application, we will determine, in our sole discretion, whether to accept or decline your application for a grant. We are not obligated to admit you or any other applicant, and we may, but are not obligated to, inform you of the grounds for our decision regarding your application. You will have no plea, claim or demand against us in connection with any decision we may or may not make regarding your own, or anyone else’s, application or admission. Our decision is final and non-contestable.
