The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering this grant to support the development of novel technologies and/or tools. The primary goal is to facilitate the large-scale study of genes and proteins at the synapse. Characterizing the synaptome in the context of hundreds of genes/proteins represents a major advancement for both basic and translational research. The technologies and tools developed through this funding are expected to profoundly affect the fields of neurology, psychiatry, neuroscience, and related disciplines by enriching current and future resources. These new tools must enable discovery science concerning the synapse by providing substantially greater sensitivity, selectivity, spatiotemporal resolution, and markedly decreased costs compared to currently available technologies. This grant seeks innovative solutions to accelerate synaptome research.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institutes of Health, encourages applications that will develop novel technologies and/or tools to facilitate the study of genes and proteins at the synapse on a large scale. Being able to characterize the synaptome in the context of hundreds of genes/proteins would be a major advance for basic and translational research. The technologies/tools created would be expected to affect the fields of neurology, psychiatry, and neuroscience by enriching existing resources as well as those in development. The new tools should enable discovery science related to the synapse by providing for substantially greater sensitivity, selectivity, spatiotemporal resolution and markedly decreased costs compared to currently available technologies. |
