Funding Opportunity PA-18-517 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) seeks to develop and nurture a national innovation ecosystem that builds upon biomedical research to develop technologies, products and services that benefit society. Toward meeting this objective, the I-Corps program is being offered. The I-Corps at NIH program is focused on educating researchers and technologists on how to translate technologies from the lab into the marketplace. Under this FOA, participating NIH and CDC Institutes and Centers will continue providing administrative supplement awards to currently-funded SBIR and STTR Phase I grantees. The program is designed to provide three-member project teams with access to instruction and mentoring in order to accelerate the translation of technologies currently being developed with NIH and CDC SBIR and STTR funding. It is anticipated that outcomes for the I-Corps teams participating in this program will include significantly refined commercialization plans and well-informed pivots in their overall commercialization strategies. Prospective applicants are strongly encouraged to contact NIH or CDC Scientific/Research staff for more information about the program before applying.

Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-17-017 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The NIDDK Inflammatory Bowel Disease Genetics Consortium (IBDGC), in collaboration with the International IBD Genetics Consortium, has identified about 200 susceptibility loci for IBD. The IBDGC has recently been awarded renewed funding to identify causal genes and genetic variants within these loci, and to elucidate the mechanisms through which they contribute to the pathophysiology of IBD. However, the IBDGC's current resources permit them to explore the functions of only a limited set of genes within a limited set of physiological domains. The purpose of this FOA is to expand the number of genes and range of IBD-related phenotypes and physiological domains under study by means of collaborations of the IBDGC with investigators with expertise complementary to that of their own members. Proposed studies must not duplicate studies either ongoing or already completed by the IBDGC. Multi-site clinical trials will not be considered responsive to this FOA.

The purpose of this FOA is to expand the number of genes and range of IBD-related phenotypes and physiological domains under study by means of collaborations of the IBDGC with investigators with expertise complementary to that of their own members. This FOA is intended to support highly exploratory studies which may require development and testing of novel experimental platforms or analytic methods. Proposed studies must not duplicate studies either ongoing or already completed by the IBDGC. Multi-site clinical trials will not be considered responsive to this FOA.

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-516 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The goal of this FOA is to establish functional genotype-phenotype relationships of genetic variants, suspected of altering the risk of Alzheimers disease (AD), in neural cells using human induced pluripotent stem cells or other human cell reprogramming approaches. The causal linkage of AD-associated genetic variants identified in genome-wide association studies and genome sequencing studies to molecular and biological cell phenotypes in human neural cells is expected to give greater insight into molecular targets contributing to the etiology of AD. Studies of human genetics in human cells is essential to understanding the etiology of AD.

Funding Opportunity PAR-18-505 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) encourages research grant applications to develop novel, robust assays to reveal changes in neuronal and/or glial function. The goal is to adapt state-of-the-art measures of basic cellular processes or molecular events that are key mediators of nervous system function into phenotypic assays, with the intent to probe mechanisms or perturbations in an unbiased and efficient manner. These novel assays would provide opportunities to measure neurobiological endpoints to accelerate basic discovery and support target identification and therapeutic development efforts.
