The Department of Health and Human Services is offering a grant to support investigator-initiated applications focused on utilizing the zebrafish model for biomedical and behavioral research. The grant aims to develop new genetic screens that advance the detection of genes, pathways, and phenotypes in various areas such as development, aging, organ formation, neural processes, behavior, and disease. This opportunity is part of the NIH initiative led by the Trans-NIH Zebrafish Coordinating Committee (TZCC) and will be awarded through the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) mechanism. Applications should align with the specified priorities and are subject to the availability of funds and quality submissions. Closing date: Sep 24, 2010.

| Description: | -Purpose. This FOA encourages investigator-initiated applications designed to exploit the power of the zebrafish as a vertebrate model for biomedical and behavioral research. Applications proposing to develop new genetic screens of high priority to the zebrafish community that will advance the detection and characterization of genes, pathways, and phenotypes of interest in development and aging, organ formation, neural processes, behavior, sensory processes, physiological processes, and disease processes are welcome. This effort stems from an NIH initiative developed by the Institutes and Centers of the Trans-NIH Zebrafish Coordinating Committee (TZCC) under the co-chairmanship of NICHD and NIDDK. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) grant mechanism. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications. |
