The Foundation funds research that may not be currently fundable by traditional agencies like NHMRC due to preliminary nature, with emphasis on early career researchers and rare genetic epilepsies. They employ a unique peer review process combining scientific assessment with input from people living with epilepsy and carers to ensure research has real-world impact. Priority is given to high-quality research that will fundamentally benefit people living with epilepsy, with equal consideration for rare and common epilepsy conditions.
