The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has posted a grant opportunity titled "Mechanistic Investigations into ADRD Multiple Etiology Dementias (R01 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)". This grant is in the category of Health and falls under the funding instrument type of Grant. The grant does not require cost sharing or matching. The opportunity is discretionary and falls under CFDA number 93.866.
The purpose of this grant is to support investigations into the cellular and molecular mechanisms of how and why multi-proteinopathy interactions drive worsening neurodegenerative processes and phenotypic outcomes in dementias with multiple etiologies. The grant aims to identify the mechanisms of co-pathology cellular and molecular interactions across brain regions and time, as well as determine the events that lead to worse phenotypic outcomes. The investigations should focus on a minimum of two relevant co-pathologies, such as tau, alpha-synuclein, TDP-43, TMEM106B, and vascular, with optional risk factors and co-morbidities.
The grant is open to eligible applicants, including 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 (Other than Federally Recognized), Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations), Regional Organizations, Tribally Controlled Colleges and Universities (TCCUs), U.S. Territory or Possession. Non-domestic (non-U.S.) Entities (Foreign Organizations) and non-U.S. components of U.S. Organizations are not eligible to apply.
The grant has an award ceiling of $500,000. The closing date for applications is October 4, 2024, and the archive date is November 9, 2024.
