Description: This FOA issued by the National Center for Research Resources (NCRR), National Institutes of Health (NIH), encourages grant applications for national Animal Model, and Animal and Biological Material Resource Centers. These Centers provide support for special colonies of laboratory animals, as well as other resources such as reagents, cultures (cells, tissues, and organs) and genetic stocks that serve the biomedical research community at large. The resource centers for Animal Models or Animal and Biological Materials collect, maintain, characterize, and distribute defined strains of animals and/or related biological materials to biomedical researchers in a variety of research areas on a local, regional, and national basis. This funding opportunity is designed to both support continuation of existing resources, and to develop new ones when appropriate. Prior to preparing an application, it is critical that all applicants consult with NCRR Program staff to be advised on appropriateness of the intended resource plans for this program, competitiveness of a potential application and NCRR program priorities.
