The Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) is offering this grant to establish the Consortium on Targeting and Regeneration (CTAR). This grant is for supporting pioneering research aimed at significantly increasing functional human beta cell mass within living organisms. Through CTAR, applicants are invited to develop innovative strategies focusing on several key areas. These include the controlled manipulation of beta cell replication, enhancing islet plasticity, or the intricate reprogramming of adult non-beta cells to transform them into functional beta-like cells. The ultimate purpose of this initiative is to advance treatments for diabetes by restoring crucial beta cell function. CTAR will operate as an integral part of the broader Human Islet Research Network, fostering collaborative efforts in this critical research area.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) requests applications for a new research consortium, the Consortium on Targeting and Regeneration (CTAR), that will support the development of innovative strategies to increase functional human beta cell mass in vivo through the controlled manipulation of beta cell replication or islet plasticity, or the reprogramming of adult non-beta cells into beta-like cells. CTAR will be part of the Human Islet Research Network (HIRN). |
