Description

The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has posted a grant opportunity titled "Limited Competition: Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Centers (U42 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)". This grant aims to support and advance the Mutant Mouse Resource and Research Centers (MMRRC), which play a crucial role in biomedical research. The MMRRC consortium is responsible for identifying, acquiring, evaluating, characterizing, cryopreserving, and distributing mutant mouse strains to qualified biomedical investigators. These mutant mouse strains, along with related biomaterials, are used by researchers for various studies.

The MMRRC consists of a regional network of four centers and an Informatics, Coordination and Service Center (ICSC). Together, they serve the needs of the biomedical research community by providing transgenic, knockout, and other genetically-engineered mutant mice. The MMRRC ensures that all strains meet high standards to optimize reproducibility of studies and maintain scientific rigor and transparency. Each MMRRC is also required to develop a small high-risk, high-return research pilot project that aligns with the goals and needs of the consortium.

Small businesses are eligible to apply for this grant opportunity. However, non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply. For more information on eligibility criteria, please refer to the full Notice of Funding Opportunity.

The deadline for submitting applications is September 1, 2024. Interested applicants can find additional information and apply through the following link: http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-24-105.html. For any inquiries, please contact NIH Grants Information at grantsinfo@nih.gov.

National Institutes of Health
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) is offering a grant opportunity titled "Resource-Related Research Projects for Development of Animal Models and Related Materials." This grant aims to support the development, characterization, and improvement of animal models of human diseases, as well as improving access to information about these models and enhancing the diagnosis and control of diseases in laboratory animals. The funded projects should focus on creating animal models, related materials, or technological tools that have broad applicability to the scientific interests of two or more NIH Institutes or Centers (ICs). These models should evaluate diseases and processes that impact multiple body systems, aligning with the NIH Office of Research Infrastructure Programs' (ORIP) mission and programs. Applicants must demonstrate the need for and potential impact of the proposed resources on the research community across various scientific disciplines supported by multiple NIH ICs. Projects that are limited to a specific disease or a narrow area of research, or that do not have a broad impact on the NIH-wide research community, will not be considered acceptable. The grant opportunity does not require cost sharing or matching funds. Eligible applicants include Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian Serving Institutions, Asian American Native American Pacific Islander Serving Institutions (AANAPISISs), eligible agencies of the federal government, faith-based or community-based organizations, Hispanic-serving institutions, Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs), Indian/Native American Tribal Governments, non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign organizations), regional organizations, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), U.S. territories or possessions. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) entities (foreign institutions) and non-domestic components of U.S. organizations are not eligible to apply. The closing date for applications is May 25, 2025.
