NINDS encourages applications for exploratory or developmental projects in translational research.
Translational research is the process of applying ideas, insights, and discoveries generated through basic scientific inquiry to the treatment or prevention of human disease. Remarkable insights have been made recently into the genetic, molecular, and cellular bases of neurological disease. NINDS encourages the translation of promising discoveries and available data on the nervous system into therapies for neurological disorders.
