The National Institutes of Health (NIH) presents a grant opportunity to support and enhance the Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Centers (MMRRC). This grant aims to sustain a consortium that provides mutant mouse strains for biomedical researchers, ensuring high-quality standards for reproducibility and scientific rigor. The MMRRC network, consisting of four centers and an Informatics, Coordination and Service Center, plays a crucial role in distributing genetically-engineered mice to qualified investigators. Additionally, the Program Director/Principal Investigator of each MMRRC is tasked with developing innovative research projects aligned with the consortium’s objectives. Deadline for applications is September 1, 2019.

Additional Information
| Agency Name: | National Institutes of Health |
| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for the continued support and advancement of the Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Centers (MMRRC). The MMRRC consortium is expected to facilitate research by identifying, acquiring, evaluating, characterizing, cryopreserving, and distributing mutant mouse strains to qualified biomedical investigators. A regional network of four MMRRCs and an Informatics, Coordination and Service Center (ICSC) collectively serve the needs of the biomedical research community for transgenic, knockout and other genetically-engineered mutant mice and related biomaterials. MMRRC strains are held to the highest standards to optimize reproducibility of studies and assure scientific rigor and transparency; all submitted strains are thoroughly reviewed and documented and include additional quality control measures. The Program Director/Principal Investigator (PD/PI) of each MMRRC in addition to the major resource activities is required to develop a small high risk, high return, research pilot project that complements the goals and needs of the MMRRC consortium. |
