This department is offering the grant to conduct original research on the function of neoantigens and neoepitopes in type 1 diabetes, particularly focusing on post-translational modifications and autoimmune responses. The goal is to enhance understanding of the disease’s etiology and pathophysiology, improve disease monitoring tools, and potentially develop personalized therapeutics. Proposals should integrate new discoveries with existing knowledge of autoantibodies like insulin, GAD65, IA-2, and ZnT8. Applications are welcomed from institutions for this grant that does not require a clinical trial.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages applications from institutions and organizations proposing original research aimed at the characterization of the function of neoepitopes and neoantigens in type 1 diabetes. This includes the function that post-translational modifications might have in the humoral and cell mediated autoimmune responses and overall in the etiology and pathophysiology of type 1 diabetes. Proposals that include the discovery of neoantigens or neoepitopes are within the scope of this solicitation, but should propose a plan for integrating these discoveries with the present knowledge on established epitopes and antigens (e.g. autoantibodies for insulin, GAD65, IA-2, and ZnT8). In the long-term the goals of this initiative are to facilitate the development of better tools to monitor disease progression and treatment, and potentially to facilitate the development of personalized therapeutics. |
