Description
The
purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to solicit
applications to establish a National Center for Natural Product Technology
Methodology and Performance Optimization (NP-TEMPO). This initiative is to
improve upon and strengthen technologies and methods used in natural products
research. The NP-TEMPO, supported through the U41 cooperative agreement funding
mechanism, is expected to overcome existing research limitations by developing
and/or adapting cutting edge, innovative approaches and technologies that will
have significant impact on the chemical and biological annotation of natural
products. This FOA is being released in conjunction with the National Center for
Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) NMR Open Access Data Exchange and
the Office of Dietary Supplements (ODS) Botanical Dietary Supplement Research
Centers Program. Collectively, the awards under these FOA constitute the
NCCIH/ODS Centers Advancing Research on Botanical and Other Natural Products
(CARBON) Program. Applicants applying under this NP-TEMPO FOA are encouraged to
collaborate with the NODE, the Botanical Dietary Supplement Research Centers,
and other NCCIH, ODS, and NIH supported grantees through NP-TEMPO Technology
Demonstration Projects (TDPs).
