NIH requests applications to develop new methodologies for natural products chemistry.
This announcement is an NIH Roadmap Initiative. The NIH Roadmap is an innovative approach to accelerate fundamental discovery and translate that knowledge into effective prevention strategies and new treatments.
This initiative supports the development of new methodologies for natural products chemistry. The long-term goal is to reinvigorate the investigation of nature as a prolific source of small molecules that have the potential to probe the roles of proteins in cellular processes, and be developed into new drugs.
