NINDS Administrative Supplements for Research on Human Embroyonic Stem Cells
Release Date: March 6, 2002
Announcement Number: NOT-NS-02-010

Funding Contact: NINDS Funding
Program Area: Repair and Plasticity

Brief Description:
The National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) announces a program for administrative supplements to foster basic and applied research on human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), and to allow investigators not currently working on hESCs to join the field. This supplemental funding initiative is issued in response to recommendations from DHHS Secretary Thompson calling for funding studies to compare the behavior of hESCs with that of other human stem cells, and stem cells from non-human species. This program is intended to facilitate research within ongoing, peer-reviewed projects that have Specific Aims on stem cell biology, or Specific Aims that may translate to the use of stem cells in basic or pre-clinical studies of neurological dysfunction. These one-time supplements are intended to help NINDS grantees develop preliminary data for new applications to NINDS.
