Limited Competition: National Primate Research Centers (P51) Program
Funding Opportunity PAR-20-181 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This FOA encourages grant applications that support the activities of the National Primate Research Centers (NPRCs). Nonhuman primates (NHPs) are most closely related to humans, both physiologically and genetically. Therefore, NHPs are critical animal models for basic and translational research aimed at understanding human biology, both in normal and diseased states. Proper husbandry and management of NHPs require specialized physical and intellectual resources, which are most effectively and economically provided in centralized primate centers,...

Special Topic Research Education Course: Exploring Auditory and Vestibular Biology (R25 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DC-20-001 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. The over-arching goal of this NIDCD R25 program is to support educational activities that foster a better understanding of biomedical research and its implications in the areas of auditory and vestibular research. The complexity of auditory and vestibular biology processes provide our hearing and balance function. Interruption of these processes may occur from a variety of factors, including genetic, environmental and pathogenic agents, and often results in the loss of hearing and balance function. While loss or impairment of these functions ...

Network for Identification, Evaluation, and Tracking of Older Persons with Superior Cognitive Performance for Their Chronological Age (U19 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-AG-21-015 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications to establish a network to identify, evaluate, track, and conduct research across multiple sites on older adults with superior cognitive performance for their age ("cognitive super agers"). The activity would support aggregation of sufficient numbers of these individuals to advance the fields understanding of factors that promote sustained cognitive health and those that are not of primary importance. Uniform identification and uniform data collection will allow the study of the ...
