Genetics and Pathobiology of Vascular Cognitive Impairment (R01): Purpose. The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS), National Institute of Aging (NIA), and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI) invite research grant applications aimed at understanding the genetics and pathobiology of Vascular Cognitive Impairment (VCI). Mechanism of Support. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) will use the NIH traditional Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism, and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scientific scope (PAS-06-265) that solicits applications under the exploratory/developmental grant (R21) award mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. The participating organizations intend to commit a total of approximately $2,250,000 to this FOA with set-aside funds (PAS), and a parallel FOA that uses the R21 mechanism (see above), in addition to funds available for applications sent in response to this initiative that score within the paylines of the participating NIH Institutes. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications. 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 total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received. Each R01 project is limited to a duration of five years. Eligible Institutions/Organizations.
