In addition to this core, each center must include a minimum of two highly meritorious clinical projects focused on diseases or conditions within the NIAMS mission (http://www.niams.nih.gov/Funding/Funding_Opportunities/Supported_Scientific_Areas/default.asp). The methodology core will be the foundation of the MCRC, providing key support for the development and implementation of clinical projects. Each clinical project must address a critical issue that directly involves prevention, assessment and/or outcomes for patients with chronic diseases or conditions within the mission of the NIAMS. The MCRCs will build on a meritorious research base and are expected to leverage existing institutional infrastructure resources. Clinical trials will not be supported by this funding mechanism.
