NINDS and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) invite applications for collaborative neurological sciences awards.
Collaborative neurological sciences awards encourage collaborative research investigations among scientists at minority institutions and scientists from external research laboratories that currently have NIH or equivalent grant support. The intent of the awards is to develop competitive neuroscience research programs at minority institutions that will lead to successful competition for traditional research project grants by the applicant investigators. Projects should consist of a thematic research plan that involves a collaborative effort among the participating investigators, each of whom will be conducting a portion of the project in his/her own laboratory.
Potential applicants should contact Dr. John Lynch, Program Director, Office of Minority Health and Research, NINDS; telephone: 301-496-3102; email: lynchj@ninds.nih.gov. For a more detailed description of this announcement, visit http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-07-357.html.
