Funding Opportunity RFA-DA-21-026 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Recent technical advancements have enabled generating human cell-mice chimeric brains by engrafting human iPSC-derived primitive neural progenitor cells and/or cord blood-derived microglial progenitor cells into neonatal mouse. In the chimeric brain, human neural progenitor cells or microglial cells differentiate, migrate, and distribute throughout the mouse brain. They are eventually functionally integrated into various brain regions. Such successes provide opportunities to define the structure, function, genetics and plasticity of functional neural networks containing human cells. It can also serve as a rodent model to study HIV infectivity, provirus activity, reservoir formation, and the neuropathogenesis of HIV infection. It allows the study of HIV and substance abuse comorbidity in the brain of a fully functional, awake, behaving animal from the single cell to neural circuitry levels.

Funding Opportunity PAR-20-129 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage applications from small business concerns (SBCs) to the newly re-authorized Commercialization Readiness Pilot (CRP) program. The FOA aims to facilitate the transition of previously or currently funded SBIR and STTR Phase II and Phase IIB projects to the commercialization stage by providing additional support for technical assistance and later stage research and development (R and D) not typically supported through Phase II or Phase IIB grants or contracts. This may include independent replication of key studies, Investigational New Drug (IND)-enabling studies, clinical studies, manufacturing costs, regulatory assistance, or a combination of services. Although a significant amount of the work in a CRP award may be subcontracted to other institutions, the Small Business Concern (SBC) is expected to maintain oversight and management of the R and D throughout the award. Clinical Trials are not accepted under this FOA.

Funding Opportunity PAR-20-128 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to encourage applications from small business concerns (SBCs) to the newly re-authorized Commercialization Readiness Pilot (CRP) program. The FOA aims to facilitate the transition of previously funded SBIR and STTR Phase II and Phase IIB projects to the commercialization stage by providing additional support for technical assistance not typically supported through Phase II or Phase IIB grants or contracts. This may include preparation of documents for a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) submission, development of an intellectual property strategy, and/or planning for a clinical trial. Although a significant amount of the work in a CRP award may be subcontracted to other organizations, the SBC is expected to maintain oversight and management of the R and D throughout the award. Clinical trials not accepted under this FOA.
