Applications for DDRCC grants must propose a theme for the Center that is relevant to digestive or liver diseases research and is supported by the research projects which comprise the research base for the DDRCC. The research base grants must be summarized in accordance with the DDRCC guidelines found at http://www.niddk.nih.gov/fund/other/centers/ddrcguidetoc.htm At least 50 percent of the already funded research base in a new application must be supported by the NIDDK. In competing continuation applications the percent may be less than 50 percent due to, for example, a growing research base of investigators entering digestive diseases research from other fields. The initial review group will determine the significance and quality of the research base.Scientific personnel and institutional resources capable of supporting the research base must be available. In addition, the institution and pertinent departments must show a strong commitment to supporting the Center. Such commitment may be provided as dedicated space, staff recruitment, salary support for investigators, dedicated or shared equipment, or other financial support for the proposed Center.Each core unit proposed for funding under the DDRCC must be utilized by a minimum of two federally funded investigators.
