SECOND CALL FOR BID MAJOR PROJECT (2020-2023)
The Foundation has launched a new call for major projects (budget to be financed: €1.5 million) devoted to the screening and early diagnosis of cerebral palsy and its complications, to intervene at a time when the brain is still best able to develop replacements.
The selected projects will be announced after STEPtember 2020.
