Omg 😰
Interesting as I contacted one of the major funding organisations for autism research, to try to get funding for my own study.
🤣🤣🤣
(If I didn't laugh I would cry)
I really just thought, why not, since they're based at Edinburgh University which is where I'm doing my PhD.
I had just seen in the papers that they had received another 87 million on top of the 145 million pounds they already receive annually.
They answered saying they didn't think my research was relevant.
On their site, it say they fund the search for 'treatments' and 'biomarkers'.
I refrained from answering them 'good luck w that one' - but I did write a reply email saying I thought they were barking up the wrong tree (to paraphrase). For my file. They never answered.
@KatyElphinstone @CuriousMagpie Best wishes for you to get the funding you’re looking for.
