Short-Term Courses In Human Embryonic Stem Cell Culture Techniques: - The National Institutes of Health (NIH) invites applications for grants to develop and conduct short-term continuing education programs on laboratory research techniques for human embryonic stem cell (hESC) lines, and to disseminate course materials and instructional experience to the scientific community. The program should include laboratory and didactic experiences to improve the knowledge and skills of biomedical researchers, and to enable them to maintain, characterize, and utilize hESC lines in basic research projects. Programs will be made available to investigators in research areas of interest to all of the Institutes and Centers of the NIH. - The participating Institutes and Centers plan to commit $975,000 in FY2006 to fund 5 to 7 awards. - The NIH Continuing Education Training Grant (T15) mechanism will be used. Allowable costs differ for this mechanism but are listed in Section IV.6, Other Submission Requirements. - Eligible organizations include: For-profit organizations; non-profit organizations; public or private institutions, such as universities, colleges, hospitals, and laboratories; units of state government; units of local government; eligible agencies of the federal government; foreign institutions; domestic institutions; and faith-based or community-based organizations. - Individuals with the skills, knowledge, and institutional resources necessary to carry out the proposed research are invited to apply for support. Individuals from the underrepresented or disadvantaged groups are always encouraged to apply for NIH opportunities. - While there is normally a limit of one training application, there is no limit on the number of applications that may be submitted to this T15 program provided they are scientifically distinct. - To submit an application, the PHS 398 form and instructions should be used and are available at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/funding/phs398/phs398.html in an interactive format. - Telecommunications for the hearing impaired: TTY 301-451-0088.
