The 2026 PWRFA Clinical Grant Round has closed.  

The PWRFA research grant round will be back next year, and focus areas will be released prior to the round opening. We provide up to $50,000 AUD (GST-free) to fund an Australian research project that makes a real difference for people with PWS, and the families who love them.

The grant’s we fund may be basic, applied or clinical research. They will: 

  • Address a clear unmet need for people with PWS and/or their families 

  • Have a well-defined question and sound methodology 

  • Have a practical pathway to translation and/or implementation in Australian healthcare, disability or care systems  

Projects that align with the PWS Research Roadmap will be considered favourably, but all PWS research addressing a genuine unmet need is welcome. 

The Grant Round will follow a 2-step process:

1) Expression of Interest (2000 characters, including spaces – approx. 300 words)
2) Researchers with successful EOIs will be invited to submit a full application
