DEBRA International is offering two EB-research funding schemes in early 2017: the ‘All-Priorities’ Research Call, and a ‘Wound Healing in EB’ Research Call.

We are looking for projects that:

• Improve our understanding of the biology and genetics of all forms of EB, as better understanding can lead to new approaches to diagnose and treat EB

• Work towards the development of therapies (including possible gene-therapies, cell-therapies, drug therapies or protein therapies)

• Understand the nature of wound healing and the development of skin cancer in EB, and seek to develop better treatments and prevention strategies

• Support clinical care research to improve the management of EB through symptom relief
