The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering this CounterACT basic research grant to fund projects investigating chemical threats that primarily or secondarily affect the nervous system. This opportunity focuses on chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, and pesticides, which represent significant hazards due to potential use in terrorist attacks or accidental industrial releases. Grant recipients are expected to conduct research that clarifies the underlying mechanisms of toxicity for these agents, identifies new clinical manifestations of exposure, and discovers potential new targets for therapeutic development. This initiative is crucial for advancing our understanding and developing effective countermeasures against neurotoxic chemical threats.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for basic research projects on chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, and pesticides that have primary or secondary effects on the nervous system. Chemical threats are toxic compounds that could be used in a terrorist attack or accidentally released from industrial production, storage, or shipping. Projects supported by this FOA are expected to generate data that elucidate mechanisms of toxicity of these agents, possible new manifestations of toxic exposures, and potential new targets for therapeutic development. |
