The Cystinosis Research Foundation (CRF) Postdoctoral Research Fellowship supports early-career scientists entering the cystinosis research field. Established in 2006, the fellowship is specifically designed to attract researchers who do not yet have a cystinosis focus, providing them with structured entry into a rare-disease community that has collectively produced 122 peer-reviewed publications

Trains postdoctoral scientists new to the cystinosis field by funding early-career research projects aligned with CRF's mission, spanning kidney disease, myopathy, gene therapy, and related rare-disease biology.
