Description

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS), and the Trans-NIH Xenopus Working Group (TXWG) invites investigator-initiated applications designed to exploit and enhance the power of Xenopus as a vertebrate model for biomedical research. Applications may propose to develop new tools or genetic, genomic, or proteomic resources of high priority to the Xenopus research community to advance the detection and characterization of genes, pathways, and phenotypes of interest in development, organogenesis, and in cell biological processes such as cell division, signaling and migration. In addition, applications will be welcomed that utilize recently developed genetic, genomic, or proteomic tools or resources to advance these same goals particularly when these projects employ tools that have not previously been used in Xenopus research.
