The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) is offering this grant to establish Pediatric Centers of Excellence in Nephrology. This grant is for supporting new and renewal applications focused on basic and clinical research into pediatric kidney disease. The program aims to attract new scientific expertise to study basic mechanisms of kidney disorders in infants, children, and adolescents, while also encouraging multidisciplinary research into disease causes. It seeks to explore novel basic areas with potential clinical application and to fund Developmental Research/Pilot and Feasibility studies. These studies are designed to foster innovative approaches to pediatric kidney disease research, ultimately leading to competitive investigator-initiated R01 grant submissions.

| Description: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites new and renewal applications for the Pediatric Centers of Excellence in Nephrology to support both basic and clinical research on pediatric kidney disease. The emphases for this program are several-fold: (1) to continue to attract new scientific expertise into the study of the basic mechanisms of kidney diseases and disorders among infants, children, and adolescents; (2) to encourage multidisciplinary research focused on the causes of these diseases; 3) to explore new basic areas that may have clinical research application and 4) to design Developmental Research (DR)/Pilot and Feasibility (P&F) studies which should lead to new and innovative approaches to study kidney disease in the pediatric population, and the eventual submission of competitive investigator-initiated R01 research grant applications. These Centers complement the OBrien Kidney and Urological Research Centers.
