Program Announcements
PAR for applications to perform Genetic
and Genomic Analyses of Xenopus
The National Institutes of Health has issued a Program Announcement
with a special Review (PAR) to solicit applications using Xenopus
to identify and characterize genes, gene families, and gene networks
that control developmental and cellular events. It also solicits
applications to generate research tools and to perform pilot studies.
Additionally, it solicits applications to devise and improve techniques
to alter gene expression, and to control the spatial and temporal
pattern of gene expression.
There is one receipt date per year for each of the next three years:
January 18, 2006, 2007 & 2008. Applications received for each
receipt date will be reviewed together in a study section convened
specifically for them.
This PAR is co-sponsored by the Trans-NIH Xenopus Working Group
and by eight Institutes and one Center (National Institute of Child
Health and Human Development, National Eye Institute, National Institute
on Deafness and other Communication Disorders, National Institute
of Dental and Craniofacial Research, National Institute of Diabetes
and Digestive and Kidney Disease, National Institute of General
Medical Sciences, National Institute of Mental Health, National
Institute of Neurological Diseases and Stroke, and the National
Center for Research Resources). Accordingly, applications performing
studies relevant to these institutes and centers are welcome.
