The Raynor Cerebellum Project (RCP) has committed to funding $30 million in research projects around the world within the RCP Network. This $30M is in addition to the $14 million that has already been funded to launch the Raynor Cerebellum Lab at UT Southwestern which is in the process of being launched. The RCP anticipates raising an additional $50 million through additional commitments from the Once Upon A Time Foundation as well as building outside partnerships with other funding sources.

The RCP announced its first RFA in March 2023 as the continuation of the work started at the RCP’s Fall 2022 Big Ideas Summit in New Mexico. There was $3 Million in Research Funding available for the first RFA covering topics from cerebellar circuit-target interventions, understanding longitudinal anatomical changes in developmental cerebellar disorders, and circuit network changes in cerebellar disorders.
