OpportunityTitle: NIAMS Building Interdisciplinary Research Team (BIRT) Revision Awards (R01)
AdditionalInformationOnEligibility: Other Eligible Applicants include the following:  Domestic institutions with active NIAMS R01 grants.
Description: The National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS) solicits applications that promote building new interdisciplinary teams among independent investigators for basic or translational research. These teams should pursue a clear and significant scientific opportunity in an area of shared interest of relevance to NIAMS. Interdisciplinary teams can undertake conceptually and technically novel approaches that would be less likely to succeed if undertaken by a more narrowly focused group of investigators. The NIAMS plans to provide up to one year of Revision support to currently active NIAMS R01s (parent grant) to establish such collaborations for high innovation and potentially high impact research. It is understood that such an application may entail high risk. Teams developed under this award are expected to make significant advances beyond the progress anticipated from the individual researchers alone.
