The mission of Morris Animal Foundation is to bridge science and resources to advance the health of animals. Through funding hypothesis-driven, humane research projects with high scientific merit, they aim at significant impact. As a non-profit funded by public support and endowment earnings, they prioritize impactful animal health research that benefits a wide range of stakeholders including veterinarians, pet owners, and communities.
The grant program focuses on supporting research into canine cancer, intending to improve canine health significantly. Of special interest are projects in genetic epidemiology, studies on genetic and epigenetic changes predictive of cancer risk, development of diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers, and tumor genomic profiling. Proposals encouraged include those utilizing specimens and data from the Golden Retriever Lifetime Study, though research leveraging other samples and data may also be considered. Additionally, the program offers Pilot Study Awards to fund proof-of-concept studies in animal health research, aimed at fostering innovation and advancement in the field.
