The Division of Convulsive, Developmental, and Neuromuscular
Disorders, National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke
(NINDS) and the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) are
revising and reissuing a NINDS program announcement on narcolepsy
published in the NIH Guide to Grants and Contracts, Vol. 19, No. 15,
April 13, 1990, to notify the scientific community of continuing
NINDS/NIMH interest in the submission of research project grant
applications related to narcolepsy.
Expiration Date: Monday, February 5, 1996 NOFO Number: PA-93-049 Release Date: Friday, February 5, 1993 Notice Type: PA
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
and the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)
invite research grant applications seeking support of a wide spectrum
of research directed at generating improved knowledge concerning Lyme
disease of the nervous system.
Expiration Date: Monday, January 15, 1996 NOFO Number: PA-93-038 Release Date: Friday, January 15, 1993 Notice Type: PA
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS),
a component of the National Institutes of Health, invites research
grant applications seeking support of a wide spectrum of research on
multiple sclerosis.
Expiration Date: Monday, November 20, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-93-024 Release Date: Friday, November 20, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The olfactory nerve provides a direct anatomic conduit between the
external chemical environment and the brain. This location puts the
olfactory system at risk for damage from environmental toxicants and
pathogens. These toxic agents comprise the major health hazard to
human olfaction. However, the direct and indirect effects of these
agents on the peripheral and central olfactory system are poorly
understood. The purpose of this Program Announcement (PA) is to foster
investigator-initiated research fundamental to understanding the impact
of environmental toxicants and pathogens on the olfactory system. A
broad range of studies extending from the molecular to the behavioral
areas of basic and clinical research is applicable to this PA. The
scope of these areas encompasses the transport of toxic substances into
the brain through the olfactory nerve, olfactory mucosal defense
mechanisms, neurogenesis, the relation of neurodegenerative diseases,
such as Alzheimer"s disease, to olfactory abnormalities induced by
toxic agents, and the vulnerability of an aged olfactory system to
toxic agents.
Expiration Date: Monday, November 13, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-93-019 Release Date: Friday, November 13, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The Division of Stroke and Trauma (DST), National Institute of
Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), invites applications for
support of research that will increase our understanding of the causes
of, and add to our ability to treat and prevent, recurrent headache,
especially migraine.
Expiration Date: Monday, November 13, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-93-018 Release Date: Friday, November 13, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The Division of Stroke and Trauma (DST), National Institute of
Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), invites applications for
support of research that will increase our knowledge of the mechanisms
underlying the neuronal regeneration and plasticity that can follow
spinal cord injury.
Expiration Date: Monday, October 16, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-93-009 Release Date: Friday, October 16, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) and the National
Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) invite
research grant applications for studies of neuro-endocrine-immune
interactions, neuroimmunomodulation, psychoneuroimmunology, and the
effects of viral and other infectious challenges on such
interactions. Applications are also invited for studies of the
health and treatment implications of such interactions. The goal of
this program announcement is to promote research which will advance
understanding of how the brain influences, and is influenced by, the
various systems that maintain homeostasis and defend/repair the
body"s tissues. This research will increase knowledge of the
interrelationships between psychological states and physical health.
Research is encouraged to improve behavioral and medical outcomes by
the application of knowledge about neuro-endocrine-immune
interactions.
Expiration Date: Monday, October 9, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-93-004 Release Date: Friday, October 9, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)
encourages the submission of research grant applications to pursue a
promising new approach to cognitive neuroscience that will identify
relations between cognitive function and neurostructure through the
study of specific, atypical patterns of cognitive deficit associated
with neurodevelopmental syndromes of known or suspected biological
origin. Examples of three clinical entities that can be studied from
this perspective are Williams syndrome, Turner syndrome and autism.
An FY 91 NINDS workshop was devoted to the discussion and
confirmation of the usefulness of in depth, systematic investigation
of patterns or profiles of selective cognitive impairment in these
unusual conditions.
Expiration Date: Monday, July 31, 1995 NOFO Number: PA-92-095 Release Date: Friday, July 31, 1992 Notice Type: PA
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) and
the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), components of the
National Institutes of Health (NIH), invite research grant applications
through this Program Announcement (PA) for support of research on
neurological aspects of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
(neuro-AIDS) in adults and children. It is well recognized that HIV-I
infection, directly and/or indirectly, causes central and peripheral
nervous system abnormalities that later may be compounded by
opportunistic infections and malignancies. Applications are solicited
covering a broad range of activities in the neurological sciences from
basic research to diagnosis and management of neurological
complications including therapeutic investigations of HIV-related
neurological disease in adults and children. Research applications
supporting the establishment or enlargement of collaborative and
consultative neurologic units coordinated with AIDS Clinical Treatment
Units (ACTUs) of the AIDS Clinical Treatment Group (ACTG), Women and
Infants Transmission Study (WITS), and Multicenter AIDS Cohort Study
(MACS) supported by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious
Diseases (NIAID) are especially solicited but are not required.
