This Notice is to inform potential applicants that the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) is participating on the Request for Applications (RFA) RFA-RM-09-002, entitled “National Centers for Biomedical Computing (U54).”

This FOA issued under the NIH Common Fund solicits grant applications that propose to continue the NIH National Centers for Biomedical Computing (NCBC) program.  These Centers, in conjunction with individual investigator awards, are creating a networked effort to build the computational infrastructure for biomedical computing in the nation.  The NCBC program is devoted to all facets of biomedical computing, from basic research in computational science to providing the tools and resources that biomedical and behavioral researchers need to do their work. In addition to carrying out fundamental research, it is expected that the NCBC will play a major role in educating and training researchers to engage in biomedical computing.
