This grant offered by NIH aims to establish the Accelerating Medicines Partnership (AMP) in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Lupus Network Leadership Center. The program focuses on identifying biological pathways and drug targets for autoimmune diseases like RA and Lupus. Through a comprehensive study on gene expression and signaling in target tissues and blood cells, researchers will enhance their understanding and pave the way for improved treatments. Applications for this grant should align with the goal of advancing research in autoimmune diseases. Closing date for applications is May 21, 2014.

| Description: | The purpose of this FOA is to solicit applications for the Accelerating Medicines Partnership (AMP) in Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) and Lupus Network Leadership Center. The AMP RA and Lupus Network is designed to ascertain and define shared and disease-specific biological pathways in order to identify relevant drug targets for the treatment of autoimmune diseases. This program will involve an enhanced systems-level understanding of gene expression and signaling in target tissues from affected end organs and peripheral blood cells. |
