Tips for Applicants

Based on the available information, CERA appears to be primarily a research-conducting institution that receives funding and collaborates, rather than a grant-making foundation with open application programs for external entities. Potential partners should align with their strategic focus areas in eye diseases (glaucoma, inherited retinal diseases, macular degeneration, diabetic eye diseases) and emerging fields (ocular oncology, neurovascular biology, data science), and be prepared for collaborative research and innovation.

Giving Philosophy

CERA's giving philosophy is centered on achieving "impact through innovation" in eye research and patient care. They prioritize translational research, early identification and intervention for eye diseases, and the development and testing of novel therapies. "Partnering for impact" is key to their strategy, fostering collaborations with consumers, funders, industry, research and academic institutions, and clinical partners to accelerate discovery and implement transformative solutions.
