Joint Degeneration: Mouse Models (R21): -The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), the National Institute on Aging (NIA) and the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research (NIDCR) solicit proposals of research employing genetically defined and genetically modified mouse models to explore the biological mechanisms underlying non-inflammatory joint degeneration, or osteoarthritis. This Funding Opportunity announcement (FOA) will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant Award (R21) mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope (PA 04-139) that will utilize the traditional research project grant (R01) mechanism. -R21 applications may request up to $275,000 direct costs for the two-year term of the grant. -Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
