EndoFound grants provide researchers with critical seed funding to launch promising projects that often have an exponential impact, such as a Johns Hopkins study that later secured a $3.5 million NIH grant. These grants not only support innovative science but also help train and sustain young investigators who will pursue solutions for patients well into the future. Grant recipients share their findings at EndoFound’s annual medical conference, fostering a collaborative community where researchers connect, exchange ideas, and spark new partnerships. By funding studies that span from the social impact of endometriosis to its cellular and molecular mechanisms, EndoFound promotes a holistic approach that deepens understanding, improves care, and reduces the burden of this disease.
ABOUT OUR RESEARCH
The Endometriosis Foundation of America is committed to funding landmark endometriosis research.
We support innovative research studies that aim to develop better strategies in diagnosing and treating endometriosis. These research studies investigate many different topics, from the social impact of the disease to the molecular level. Studies funded by EndoFound continue to be published in top journals and garner distinguished awards.
Each year, EndoFound handpicks projects from researchers who show a strong track record of producing impactful studies that influence the clinical care and overall health outcomes of endometriosis patients. These projects utilize innovative methodologies and detail research objectives that aim to advance the scientific community’s understanding of the disease.

Disclaimer:
Endofound is a charitable entity and is not committed to matching the indirect cost rates of the U.S. government or other entities. We believe our policy to allow no more than 10% of any Endofound research grant funding to go towards indirect costs is consistent with that of many private foundations and certain government entities that have a flat rate that caps the amount an applicant institution can charge. Endofound's policy helps ensure furtherance of our charitable purpose.
