NIH - Protein Structure Initiative: Biology- Materials Repository (PSI: Biology - MR) (U01)
RFA-GM-10-008
Program Summary
This FOA solicits applications to maintain and enhance the Protein Structure Initiative:Biology-Materials Repository (PSI:Biology-MR or MR) in support of NIGMS PSI:Biology projects. The MR serves as a centralized site for the collection, maintenance, storage, and distribution of vectors and clones developed during the course of the structure determinations carried out by the PSI:Biology Centers. In this way, the MR plays a critical role in making these clones widely available to other scientists. The awardee will become part of the PSI:Biology Network Steering Committee and will work jointly with other investigators and NIH staff to manage the overall PSI:Biology initiative.
The National Institute of General Medical Sciences expects to award up to $1.5 million annual total costs through this announcement. There will be one award.
The expected budget range is from $800,000 - $1.0 million direct cost (up to $1.5 million total costs) per year. The total project period for an application submitted in response to this funding opportunity is expected to be five years.
UIC is restricted to one application.
