Limited Competition: Revision Application for the Human Islet Research Network Coordinating Center (U01): This Funding Opportunity Announcement requests submission of a Revision application for the Human Islet Research Network Coordinating Center (HIRN-CC). The HIRN-CC was awarded by NIDDK in 2014 (RFA-DK-13-013), and consists of a single U01 that is charged with coordinating the activities of four related but distinct basic science research consortia. The HIRN program was designed to be a flexible network that rapidly responds to new advances and opportunities in human islet research. The network's composition and scientific scope change over time, resulting in changes to the number, size and nature of member consortia supported by the HIRN coordinating center. Accordingly, the HIRN-CC was envisioned as a project that would evolve over time to support the needs of this expanding and ever-changing network of human islet researchers. Since the inception of HIRN, the network has grown in size and complexity. For this reason, NIDDK is providing an opportunity for the HIRN-CC to submit a Revision application that will support increased needs across the HIRN. This supplemental award is intended to support additional pilot projects that will seed new and innovative research collaborations, and that will expand the development of novel shared resources required by HIRN investigators and the community. NIDDK uses the cooperative agreement funding mechanism supporting the HIRN-CC for a variety of projects requiring significant input from and oversight by NIDDK program staff. Although some requests for expansion or redirection of a project that are considered within the scope of the original specific aims can be handled administratively, more substantial changes in direction and increases in funding require peer review.
