NIH RFA for T1D Research

NIH RFA 19-026: New Investigator Gateway Awards for Collaborative T1D Research

NIH has issued a “New Investigator Gateway Awards for Collaborative T1D Research” Funding Initiative. This initiative is similar to our internal HIRN New Investigator Initiative we held a few years ago – except that it’s being organized centrally at NIH (with more awards and more money!) and the applicants are encouraged to submit the group they would like to work with (HIRN, TEDDY or TrialNet).
