AFM-Téléthon Scientific Call for Proposals
AFM-Téléthon (France)
Neuromuscular disease research funding from the French telethon charity. Routes include Trampoline grants for early-stage or higher-risk work (up to €50,000), one-year research project grants, and renewable postdoctoral fellowships.
BTHS skeletal myopathy falls under the metabolic-diseases-of-muscle scope, which is the angle to lead with in an application here — the cardiac phenotype is not what this funder is set up for.
International — open to French and foreign teams.
The 2026 main call (Trampoline, project grants, postdoc fellowships) opened Dec 12, 2025 and closed Jan 20, 2026; the separate PhD-fellowship track ran Feb 3 – Mar 10, 2026. Apply via the AFM-Téléthon calls page.
