Notice Number: NOT-HL-11-120

Key Dates
Release Date: September 24, 2010

Issued by
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI)

Purpose

The National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) intends to issue a new Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to solicit Grant applications to participate in the Translational Research Centers in Thrombotic and Hemostatic Disorders (TRC-THD).  The primary objective of this new Centers program is to enhance the translation of basic research discoveries that could lead to improved prevention, diagnosis and treatment for thrombotic and hemostatic disorders.  The TRC-THD will advance early stage translation research, integrating applied and basic science to move research discoveries toward clinical application.  The individual multiple project Centers will address important clinical questions and must have at least one assay, method, procedure, or agent in early phase translation. Each Center will have a translational research skills development component and include collaborations with their Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSA) programs or institutional programs with similar capabilities to leverage existing resources to accelerate the translational research process.

This Notice is being provided to allow potential applicants sufficient time to develop meaningful collaborations and responsive projects.  The FOA is expected to be published in the Fall 2010 with an expected receipt date in April 2011.

The FOA will utilize the U54 mechanism. 

APPLICATIONS ARE NOT BEING SOLICITED AT THIS TIME.
