Purpose

The National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) will be holding a pre-application Technology and Resources webinar on March 25, 2016 from 1-3 pm EST for the Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) RFA-NS-16-023, entitled "Center without Walls for the Identification and Validation of Molecular Mechanisms Contributing to Tau Pathogenesis and Associated Neurodegeneration in Frontotemporal Degeneration (FTD) (U54)".

The webinar will provide a brief introduction to the FOA, but primarily focus on technologies and available resources that could be applied to identify and validate the molecular mechanisms contributing to tau toxicity and associated neurodegeneration characteristic of FTD.

For information on how to join the webinar (video and audio coordinates, including passwords), please register at https://meetings.ninds.nih.gov/meetings/TauCWOW/.

Participation in this webinar, although encouraged, is optional and is not required for the submission of an application.
