The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is preparing to announce a funding opportunity for Resource-based Centers focused on Bone, Muscle, and Orthopaedic Research. This initiative aims to establish centers that will provide essential research infrastructure, shared facilities, and resources to support investigators in conducting efficient and effective research projects in these critical areas. The goal is to enhance ongoing basic, translational, and clinical research aligned with the mission of the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS). While applications are not currently being solicited, potential applicants are encouraged to develop collaborations and project proposals in anticipation of the funding announcement, which is expected to be published in September 2025. Interested parties can reach out to Dr. Mary Garcia-Cazarin at mary.garcia-cazarin@nih.gov or by phone at 301-451-2937 for further information.
