The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) intends to issue a Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit applications for the NINDS Clinical Research Methods Course. The goal of this initiative is to enhance the training of new investigators in the conduct of high-quality clinical trials. This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects. The FOA is expected to be published in summer 2013 with an expected application due date in Fall 2013.
