Centers of Excellence in Complex Biomedical Systems Research: This RFA re-announces the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) RFA for the establishment of new academic Centers of Excellence in Complex Biomedical Systems Research (CE/CBSR) that was published in the NIH Guide on January 26, 2001. The goal of the CE/CBSR program is to promote institutional development of pioneering research and training programs focused on quantitative, systems level analysis of biological phenomena of biomedical importance within the NIGMS mission. NIGMS supports fundamental inquiries focused on cell biology and biophysics, genetics and developmental biology, human physiology in the areas of trauma, burn, inflammation, and multiorgan failure, and pharmacology and anesthesiology. NIGMS does not support research focused on diseases that are the domain of other Institutes and Centers within the NIH. The CE/CBSR program also is responsive to the Biomedical Information Science and Technology Initiative (BISTI) and its call for National Programs of Excellence in Biomedical Computing (NPEBC). Non-exclusive examples of appropriate research foci of CE/CBSR Centers are the organization and dynamic behaviors of subcellular, cellular, and developing systems, the relationship of genetic and environmental variation to the expression of phenotype, and the understanding of organ system responses to injury and stress. Approaches might include computationally- based modeling; e.g., of processes such as the cell cycle, pattern formation during embryogenesis, the flux of substrates and intermediates in metabolism, system wide responses to pharmaceuticals, and cellular stress responses. Statistical and other mathematical tools may be used to analyze the genetic architecture of complex traits, and network analysis may be applied to understanding the integrated systemic host responses to trauma, burn, or other injury. The P50 Center Grant mechanism will support the development of multi- investigator teams capable of engaging biomedical complexity with a scope of activities not possible with other funding mechanisms. Activities will encompass research and training, as well as workshops, symposia, and other forms of outreach. Centers will support research activities that may include the development of new instrumentation and methods, bioinformatics infrastructure, and new theoretical frameworks. Training activities may include programs in computational and information sciences. Partnering with undergraduate institutions, especially those with substantial numbers of underrepresented minority students, is encouraged.
