This grant, offered by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease (NIDDK), and the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), aims to fund research for innovative therapeutic interventions and tools. Specifically, it encourages Exploratory/Developmental (R21) applications focusing on the basic understanding and development of treatments for conditions currently screened in newborns. It also supports research into high priority genetic conditions for which screening might be feasible in the near future, particularly where an effective therapy would enable newborn screening. The overall purpose is to advance therapeutic options for early life disorders.

Description: | Purpose. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) issued by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Disease (NIDDK) and National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD) encourages Research Project Grant (R21) applications from institutions/ organizations that propose research relevant to the basic understanding and development of therapeutic interventions for currently screened conditions and high priority genetic conditions for which screening could be possible in the near future. In this FOA, a high priority condition is one for which the development of an efficacious therapy would make the condition amenable to newborn screening. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) award mechanism and runs in parallel with two FOAs of identical scientific scope, PAR-10-230 and PAR-10-231, that encourage applications under the R01 and R03 mechanisms. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. |
