Bringing In The Research Dollars! (BiRD)

Disease Mechanisms of Prenatal and Pediatric Hydrocephalus (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)


Deadline: June 05, 2021

Amount: Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project

Purpose

The purpose of this funding opportunity announcement (FOA) is to support hypothesis-driven research of prenatal and pediatric hydrocephalus. This FOA intends to support hydrocephalus research projects that examine the developmental etiology (intrinsic factors including genetics) and acquired etiology (extrinsic factors including hemorrhage and infection) of prenatal and/or pediatric hydrocephalus. Studies should focus on understanding the molecular, cellular and developmental mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of prenatal and/or pediatric hydrocephalus.

Remarks

  • Topics of interest include:
    • understanding the pathogenesis of prenatal and/or pediatric hydrocephalus due to intrinsic factors including genetic factors
    • understanding the pathogenesis of prenatal and/or pediatric hydrocephalus due to extrinsic factors including hemorrhage and infection
  • Clinical trial not allowed
  • Companion funding: R21 Exploratory/Development Grant PA-18-623
