National Cooperative Reprogrammed Cell Research Groups (NCRCRG) to Study Mental Illness (U19): The purpose of the National Cooperative Reprogrammed Cell Research Groups (NCRCRG) program is to create multidisciplinary research groups, in partnership with academia and industry, to use patient-derived reprogrammed cells to develop validated platforms for identifying novel targets and developing new therapeutics or diagnostic tools to reduce the burden of mental illness. The collaborations will be pre-competitive, meaning that they lie at the interface between basic academic research and proprietary industrial research and involve cooperation between groups that might otherwise be competitors, with a focus on optimizing tools and measures needed for successful translational research. The Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages applications to further develop promising cellular differentiation/characterization protocols and/or disease-relevant assays using patient-derived reprogrammed cells (e.g., induced pluripotent stem cells or iPSCs, induced neuronal cells or iNCs). Critical features of these applications should be (1) a strong emphasis on developing methodology that is robust and replicable across several performance sites, and (2) cross-paradigm validation to yield predictive value for pathophysiology.
