The goal of SFARI's Pilot Award program is to provide early support for exploratory ideas, particularly those with novel hypotheses, that have the potential to yield transformative results in autism spectrum disorder (ASD) research. SFARI plans to commit approximately $4.88 million in funding over the next two years.
