This grant by the National Institutes of Health aims to fund exploratory projects focused on understanding the mechanisms of osteoarthritis initiation and progression, particularly in the context of aging. The funding supports early-stage research that may involve high risk but has the potential for significant breakthroughs in the field. Researchers are encouraged to develop new paradigms and test hypotheses to advance knowledge in this area. Applicants have the opportunity to explore novel techniques, methodologies, and applications that can have a substantial impact on osteoarthritis research. Closing date for applications is September 7, 2019, 12:00 AM EDT.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications intended to encourage Exploratory/Developmental applications to accelerate the characterization of new paradigms to test hypotheses that will lead to an improved understanding of the mechanisms of initiation and progression of osteoarthritis and the role of aging in the process. The NIH Exploratory/Developmental Grant supports exploratory and developmental research projects by providing support for the early and conceptual stages of these projects. These studies may involve considerable risk but may lead to a breakthrough in a particular area, or to the development of novel techniques, agents, methodologies, models, or applications that could have a major impact on the field of study. |
