Through the use of administrative supplements to grants funded by the 
National Institute of General Medical Sciences(NIGMS), this initiative 
aims to (a) enhance NIGMS funded research on complex biological 
processes by bringing to bear approaches from the mathematical, 
physical, and engineering sciences, (b) recruit established experts 
from mathematics, physics, engineering, computer science, and other 
quantitative disciplines into biomedical research, and (c) encourage 
non-traditional, cross-disciplinary collaborations.  

More complete information can be found at 
http://www.nigms.nih.gov/funding/complex_supplements.html

Supplements are limited to NIGMS grantees working in fields where 
theoretical and quantitative approaches are not yet routine.  Grants in 
areas where theoretical and quantitative approaches are already well 
established are not eligible for supplementation.  These include areas 
such as population biology, bioinformatics, biophysics, biophysical 
chemistry, drug design, and structural biology.
