Exploratory Collaborations with National Centers for Biomedical Computing (R21): -This PAR is for projects from individual-investigators or small groups to collaborate with the recently-formed NIH Roadmap for Medical Research National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBCs). For a description of the NCBCs see http://www.bisti.nih.gov/ncbc/index.cfm. -This announcement uses the R21 mechanism, and is intended to support exploratory biomedical informatics and computational biology research applications should be innovative, with high risk/high impact in new areas that are lacking preliminary data or development. Applications for R21 awards should describe projects distinct from those supported through the traditional R01 mechanism. In the latter case, investigators should consult the parallel announcement PAR-05-063 "Collaborations with National Centers for Biomedical Computing". For example, long-term projects, or projects designed to increase knowledge in a well-established area will not be considered for R21 awards. -The intention of the collaborating projects is to engage researchers across the nation in building an excellent biomedical computing environment, using the computational tools and biological and behavioral application drivers of the funded NCBCs as foundation stones. -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 applicant may request a project period of up to two years with a combined budget for direct costs of up to $275,000 for the two year period. The request should be tailored to the needs of the project. Normally, no more than $200,000 may be requested in a single year. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. -Successful applications will be funded by the participating ICs. -Eligible organizations include: for-profit or non-profit organizations; public or private institutions, such as universities, colleges, hospitals, and laboratories; units of state and local governments; eligible agencies of the Federal government; domestic or foreign institutions/organizations. -Eligible PIs include any individual with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out the proposed research. Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply for NIH programs. -There is no limit to the number of scientifically different applications that each applicant may submit. However, each application must include a letter of support from the PI of the NCBC with whom the collaboration is proposed. -Application forms are available at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/funding/phs398/phs398.html.
