Innovative Grants on Immune Tolerance: The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK), and the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), National Institutes of Health (NIH), invite applications for exploratory/developmental research project grants to support novel work on the molecular mechanisms and applications of antigen-specific immune tolerance, which is the selective and long-term inactivation of immune responses. The projects should involve a high degree of innovation, and have a clearly articulated potential to improve understanding of immune tolerance. Investigators new to immune tolerance are particularly encouraged to develop projects in this area. Research projects will be supported by the exploratory/developmental research grant mechanism, which provides the resources to carry out preliminary tests of feasibility for new research hypotheses. Clinical trials are excluded from this RFA, as are studies on HIV/AIDS and behavioral research. However, research involving human tissues or samples is encouraged.
