NINDS Funding Opportunity: Advancing Translational Research Projects for Neurological Disorders (R21)

NINDS is offering this grant to support research activities aimed at advancing candidate therapeutics for neurological disorders through FDA submissions. Projects should have a strong biological rationale, conclusive data, and methodological rigor. Funding will only cover preclinical development of therapeutic drugs, devices, and biologics. The grant does not support diagnostics, rehabilitation strategies, clinical research, basic research, or disease mechanism studies. Successful projects are expected to progress to the next phase of translational research. Closing date for application is Jan 07, 2015.

Additional Information

Agency Name::	National Institutes of Health
Description::	The goal of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to support any research activities required to advance candidate therapeutics through Investigational New Drug (IND), Investigational Device Exemption (IDE), or 510(K) submission to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and ready them for clinical testing for neurological disorders. Projects should include a strong biological rationale for the intended approach, supporting data from rigorously designed experiments, and proposed studies that exhibit methodological rigor. Such projects, if successful, should lead directly to or support another project (e.g. cooperative agreement in translational research) that will include all remaining activities for submission of an IND, IDE, or 510(k) application to the FDA. The scope includes only preclinical development activities for therapeutic drugs, devices, and biologics; development of diagnostics or rehabilitation strategies cannot be supported. Clinical research, basic research, and studies of disease mechanism are outside the program scope.
