Limited Competition for Continuation of Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell (iPSC) Resources promoting Translational Research Advancements in Neurodegenerative Diseases (U24): The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) invites applications for a limited competition Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) utilizing a Cooperative Agreement (U24) to provide continuing support for consortia originally funded through the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA) to develop well characterized, broadly available induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) resources for neurodegenerative diseases. A primary goal of this new initiative is to facilitate the scientific evaluation of iPSC resources for drug discovery purposes and to increase the number of lines, types of mutations, reporter modifications, maintenance and differentiation protocols and cell line characterization that are broadly available to the community as research resources. This Initiative is intended to be a partnership with government, non-government organizations and pharmaceutical companies interested in advancing drug discovery efforts for neurodegenerative diseases.
