This grant, offered by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), aims to foster and expand the benign urologic research community. The Fostering Research With Additional Resources and Development (FORWARD) Urology Centers program supports innovative Research Projects. These projects must be designed and conducted by collaborative, multidisciplinary teams comprising junior investigators or researchers new to benign urologic research. The primary purpose is to enable these teams to generate robust data, supporting subsequent applications for independent grants like R01s. Each Center’s leadership will also manage an Administrative Core. This core provides essential guidance to the research team, ensuring project aims are met and facilitating their successful integration into the broader benign urologic research landscape, often leveraging NIDDK’s CAIRIBU Program and other institutional resources.

| Description: | The overall goal of the Fostering Research With Additional Resources and Development (FORWARD) Urology Centers program is to foster and expand the benign urologic research community. FORWARD Urology Centers will support a Research Project designed and conducted by a collaborative, multidisciplinary team comprising junior investigators and/or researchers new to the field of benign urologic research. It is expected that the Research Project Team will generate data to support one or more follow-on independent grant applications (e.g., R01s). The Center PD(s)/PI(s) will lead an Administrative (Project Support) Core to provide guidance to the Research Team to help ensure the research aims are met and to aid them in their successful integration into the broader benign urologic research field. To facilitate these goals, the Center will leverage intra- and extra-institutional resources, collaborations and facilities and engage as a member of NIDDKs CAIRIBU (Collaborating for the Advancement of Interdisciplinary Research in Benign Urology) Program. |
