KARES Research Grants

One of the KARES Foundation’s core pillars of work is to support research that will ultimately target treatments for KDM5C–related disorders. The KARES Foundation strongly encourages interdisciplinary collaboration and the sharing of resources as a means of accelerating progress in KDM5C research. Research funded by the KARES Foundation is for public use in an effort to educate and promote further discovery. Email info@kares.foundation with any questions.

Call for Proposals!

The 2023 application is now closed, and will reopen in early 2024. KARES is interested in research that will advance understanding of the function of the KDM5C gene and highlight long-term therapeutic targets for KDM5C genetic variants (also known as Claes-Jensen syndrome).

Our families are greatly affected by KDM5C and there are currently no targeted treatment options for them. We are interested in preclinical and translational research that might pave the way to clinical trials and improve quality of life for KDM5C-affected patients. Join our team who KARES today!
