NINDS encourages applications for NINDS Cooperative Program in Translational Research single-component research projects.
Recent discoveries across a broad range of neuroscience research areas offer promising opportunities for treatment of neurological disorders. As part of its mission to reduce the burden of neurological disease, NINDS encourages the "translation" of these discoveries into new treatments. This announcement supports milestone-driven projects focused on the identification, optimization, and pre-clinical testing of candidate therapeutics.
