NIH PAR23 Collaborative Program Grant for Multidisciplinary Teams (RM1 – Clinical Trial Optional)
This FOA encourages applications from institutions/organizations that propose projects addressing complex and challenging biomedical problems within the mission of the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS). The Collaborative Program Grant is designed to support research in which funding a team of interdependent investigators to achieve a unified scientific goal offers significant advantages over supporting individual research project grants. These multidisciplinary research teams must have a highly integrated approach for each project goal.
