Funding Opportunities

One Mind invites applications from early career investigators in neuroscience, psychiatry, psychology, and related disciplines to apply for a three-year grant of up to $300,000. The Rising Star Awards fuels breakthrough research to deepen our understanding of the brain and mental health conditions, enhance detection and diagnosis, and drive the treatment and prevention of psychiatric disorders. Beyond funding, it cultivates the next generation of scientific leaders through mentorship, networking, and leadership training, empowering them to advance scientific innovation and shape the future of neuroscience and mental health care. One Mind launched the Rising Star Awards in 2005 based on the fundamental premise that investing in world-class early career investigators pursuing innovative, high-risk/high-reward research would accelerate breakthroughs for psychiatric disorders. Since its inception, One Mind has awarded 48 Rising Star Awards to researchers who are pushing the frontiers of mental health science through their scientific discovery and leadership.
