Purpose

The purpose of this Notice is to inform the scientific community that applications will be accepted that address additional research areas beyond those described in PAR-08-181: Seeding Collaborative Interdisciplinary Team Science in Diabetes, Endocrinology and Metabolic Diseases (R24) . In addition to applications to provide flexible support for research teams focused on innovative approaches to a single large problem relevant to diabetes, endocrinology and /or metabolic diseases, as published in the FOA on June 18, 2008, the NIDDK will also accept applications for research relevant to kidney, urologic and hematologic diseases that fall within the mission of the NIDDK (see http://www2.niddk.nih.gov/AboutNIDDK/Organization/Divisions/KUH/KUHMission for more details). Specifically, applications can address a single large problem related to non-malignant, chronic and acute renal and urologic diseases, renal and urologic complications of diabetes, and diseases of blood and blood-forming organs including sickle cell disease, Cooley's anemia (thalassemia), and hemochromatosis.

All other aspects of the FOA remain unchanged.
