-Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA), issued by the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, National Institutes of Health, solicits Research Project Grant (R01) applications from institutions/organizations that propose basic, clinical or translational research on the effects of the Fragile X pre-mutation on ovarian function, with a focus on premature ovarian failure or early menopause, in women and/or animal models. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scientific scope, PA -07-220, that solicits applications using the R03 mechanism. -Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
