This grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH) is for investigators possessing small molecule compounds and disease assays with potential for treating nervous system and psychiatric disorders. Its purpose is to accelerate the discovery and development of neurotherapeutic drugs. Successful applicants will receive funding through a U01 cooperative agreement to conduct biological testing of compounds in their laboratories. Crucially, they will also gain no-cost access to a robust virtual pharma network, providing essential drug discovery services such as medicinal chemistry optimization, IND-directed pharmacology and toxicology, and Phase I clinical testing. This unique opportunity aims to transition promising compounds towards clinical readiness by offering resources typically unavailable to academic research.

| Description: | The National Institutes of Health (NIH) announces a unique opportunity for investigators working with small molecule compounds to gain access to a robust virtual pharma network to discover neurotherapeutic drugs. Successful applicants to this FOA will become collaborative participants in this network, receiving both funding and no-cost access to contracted drug discovery services that are not typically available to the academic research community. Funding will be provided through a U01 cooperative agreement mechanism to conduct biological testing of compound analogs in disease assays and models in the investigators laboratory. No-cost drug discovery services will also be provided, including medicinal chemistry optimization, IND-directed pharmacology and toxicology, and Phase I clinical testing. Researchers in possession of disease assays and small molecule compounds that show promise for treating nervous system and psychiatric disorders, but that are not yet suitable for clinical testing, are strongly encouraged to apply. |
