Research Programs
Each year MTF Biologics awards major research grants to applicants selected through a peer review process which provides financial assistance to new and on-going research projects. Scientific grants are awarded to researchers at accredited institutions in support of innovation in allograft transplantation.
MTF Biologics Innovation in Allografts Translational Grants
As a nonprofit organization, MTF Biologics reinvests to positively affect lives across the globe by offering Allograft Innovation Grants for funding translational and clinical research to advance Allograft Tissue Transplantation and support our mission to Save and Heal Lives. Funding is available for both Allograft Translational Research and Allograft Clinical Research projects. Awarded grants are aimed at advancing allograft tissue transplantation science and patient care. Submitted research projects must utilize allografts or allograft-derived materials, and must have a strong clinical translation component.
Clinical areas of interest include: Orthopedics, Plastic & Reconstructive Surgery, Aesthetics, Surgical Soft Tissue Repair and Reconstruction, Wound Care, or other areas which utilize allograft transplant technologies.
Proposed studies should focus on innovative translational and clinical research in the fields of tissue allograft transplantation and science, novel uses of allografts, combination with other biomaterials to enhance properties, and transformative regenerative medicine technologies relying on allograft tissues and matrices.
Interested applicants can apply to one of the following tracks: Junior Investigator Grant, Established Investigator Grant, or Career Development Award.
We are now accepting Letters of Intent for this year’s application cycle. Interested applicants can review the RFP. The Letter of Intent deadline is March 14, 2025.
