The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering the BRAIN Initiative Cell Atlas Network (BICAN) grant to establish Comprehensive Centers dedicated to creating detailed brain cell atlases of human and non-human primates. This initiative aims to characterize all types of brain cells at a high resolution, with a focus on building reference atlases for research on brain function and disorders. Applications should implement advanced technology platforms and efficient sampling strategies. The goal of the grant is to provide the research community with essential molecular and anatomical frameworks for understanding the brain. Closing date for applications is February 01, 2023.

| Agency Name:: | National Institutes of Health |
| Description:: | This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) intends to support a group of large-scale Comprehensive Centers that will adopt scalable technology platforms and streamlined sampling strategies and assay cascade to create comprehensive and highly granular brain cell atlases of human and non-human primates with an emphasis on human. The Centers are expected to characterize all brain cell types (neurons, glia, and other non-neuronal cells) at high-resolution. The overarching goal of the BICAN is to build reference brain cell atlases that will be widely used throughout the research community, providing a molecular and anatomical foundational framework for the study of brain function and disorders. |
