Description
The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to encourage the submission of applications for research to enhance animal stem cells as model biological systems. Innovative approaches to isolate, characterize and identify toti-potent and multi-potent stem cells from nonhuman biomedical research animal models, as well as to generate reagents and techniques to characterize and separate those stem cells from other cell types is encouraged. Studies involving human subjects are not allowed under this FOA. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research may vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award may also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-07-303, that solicits applications under the R01 grant mechanism.
