Key Considerations

All applications for funding opportunities are reviewed by our International PFIC Research & Registry Review Committee (IRRRC). The IRRRC is composed of PFIC community members, researchers and clinicians from around the world. Proposals are evaluated based on the following:

  • Relevance for PFIC Network’s mission and grant program
  • Benefit for PFIC patients and community
  • Burden for study participants
  • Scientific innovation and impact
  • Research approach and feasibility
  • Applicant/Environment
  • Budget (Total Cost is composed of Indirect and Direct Cost, with Indirect Cost limited to 15% of Direct Cost)
