Organization for Autism Research (OAR) – Applied Research Competition
The Organization for Autism Research (OAR) was created in December 2001 – the product of the shared vision and unique life experiences of OAR’s seven founders. Led by these parents and grandparents of children and adults on the autism spectrum, OAR set out to use applied science to answer questions that parents, families, individuals with autism, teachers and caregivers confront daily.
The annual Applied Research Competition is the most competitive line of funding the OAR offer. Researchers can apply for 1-2 year grants of up to $30,000.
There are no eligibility requirements based on experience or degree, however many of the finalists have doctoral degrees and previous experience conducting autism research.
International researchers are eligible to apply.
