The purpose of the Pilot and Feasibility program is to initiate new ideas, supporting investigators from outside of the CF field with ideas and expertise from which CF could benefit, investigators currently in CF research but with new ideas that are significant departures from their existing research program and early stage investigators interested in CF. It is expected that by supporting such individuals, new ideas and projects will be stimulated that will be competitive for extramural funding.

Investigators from outside of the CF field with ideas and expertise from which CF could benefit; investigators currently in CF research but with new ideas that are significant departures from their existing research program and early stage investigators interested in CF.
