Small grants for psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis research

PAPAA supports research that can make a meaningful difference to people affected by psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis. As a charity, we aim to support research into all aspects of psoriatic disease whenever possible, although the amounts we are able to commit are necessarily relatively small.

Current funding call — closed

The current call for PAPAA small research-grant applications is now closed.

Please check this page for details of future funding opportunities. If you have a query about a potential application or an area of research that may be suitable for PAPAA support, please contact us.

How we fund

PAPAA considers applications for small, relatively low-cost grants, typically under £10,000. Trustees may also consider larger applications, particularly where PAPAA funding would provide seed funding for a higher-value project.

PAPAA is registered with the National Institute for Health and Care Research (NIHR) as a partner organisation. Where PAPAA-supported research is eligible, this may allow the study to be added to the UK Clinical Research Network portfolio.

We support research projects in the following areas: 

  • Seed funding/Early-stage studies
  • Short term observational studies
  • Funding of feasibility and pilot studies
  • Systematic Reviews
  • Small epidemiological surveys
  • Innovative psoriatic disease research
  • Psoriasis and psoriatic arthritis in children
  • Favouring <12-months duration

The trustees of the charity will consider other areas of research, provided there is likely to be a tangible benefit for patients affected by psoriasis and/or psoriatic arthritis.
