The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) is offering this grant to stimulate innovation and accelerate the discovery of biological biomarkers for Parkinson’s disease (PD). This funding opportunity will consolidate, integrate, and enhance NINDS-funded PD biomarker research projects under the NINDS Parkinson’s disease biomarkers program (PDBP). This grant is for fostering research into crucial areas such as biospecimen preparation methodologies, quantitative analyte analysis, reagent and assay development, and advanced data analysis methods essential for progress in PD biomarkers. It also permits the utilization of existing specimens and data for novel discovery projects, provided all resulting data can be deposited into the PDBP Data Management Resource (DMR). This initiative aims to significantly advance the understanding and detection of PD.

| Description: | The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to stimulate innovation and development of technologies and reagents that will accelerate the discovery of biological biomarkers for Parkinsons disease (PD). It is expected that the NINDS Parkinsons disease biomarkers program (PDBP) will consolidate, integrate and enhance NINDS-funded PD biomarkers research projects. This FOA will foster research into biospecimen preparation methodologies, quantitative analyte analysis, reagent and assay development, and data analysis methods needed for PD biomarkers progress to occur. Utilization of extant specimens and data for novel discovery projects is permitted under this FOA, as long as consent enables deposition of all data into the PDBP Data Management Resource (DMR). |
