Notice of the NHLBI Exploratory Program in Systems Biology

Notice Number: NOT-HL-06-103

Key Dates
Release Date: August 18, 2005

Issued by
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/)

The purpose of this Notice is to announce the NHLBI's intention to issue a Request for Applications (RFA) for an Exploratory Program in Systems Biology in the fall of 2005. The receipt date for applications would be in the spring of 2006.

This Exploratory Program in Systems Biology would support innovative, high-risk, high-impact research in the heart, lung, blood, and sleep (HLBS) areas. The systems biology approach supported by this RFA would bring together teams of experimental and computational/modeling researchers to further our understanding of biological networks and pathways critical in HLBS function. It is envisioned that this research would be carried out by highly interactive, collaborative, and multidisciplinary teams of investigators that would include researchers with a range of expertise, such as biomedical, physical, informatic, and mathematical disciplines.

This Notice encourages investigators who believe that they have sufficient expertise and resources to form these collaborative, multidisciplinary teams to begin considering applying for this initiative.

APPLICATIONS ARE NOT BEING SOLICITED AT THIS TIME.
