Description: This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) requests applications for a new research consortium, the Consortium on Beta cell Death and Survival (CBDS). The mission of CBDS will be to better define and detect the mechanisms of beta cell stress and destruction central to the development of T1D in humans, with the long-term goal of protecting the residual beta cell mass in T1D patients as early as possible in the disease process. CBDS will be part of the Human Islet Research Network (HIRN).
