Work with our foundation to make surviving ovarian cancer an ordinary outcome

Top of page

Since our establishment in May 2019, we have distributed 4.3 million euros/SEK 4.8 million towards ovarian cancer research, fueling the pursuit for earlier diagnosis and more effective treatments.

 

With a 90 account and a registered charity status, we proudly allocate 100% of our funds
to this crucial cause.  
 

Thanks to our generous donors, there has been a positive growth in the total grant sum.
In 2024, a total of 1.2 million SEK could be awarded.

 

Applications open in October!

Apply

Once a year, Lena Wäppling's Foundation announces funding
of scientific research in gynecology, primarily to diagnose and treat ovarian cancer. Applications can be sent in during the period from 1 October
to 15 December each year.

Review

The Scientific Committee
of the Swedish Society of Obstetrics and Gynecology
is responsible for the medical review of applications received and submits a recommendation to the Board of Lena Wäppling's Foundation for decisions
on allocation of funds.

Grants

Decisions about allocation of funds will be made by 30 April. 

 

The number of grants awarded can vary. One grant per year is awarded to a junior researcher (max 5 years since PhD at the
time of application).
