Key Dates
Release Date: March 6, 2008

Issued by
National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), (http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/)

The purpose of this Notice is to advise investigators who plan to submit applications under the parent FOA (PA-06-181) for the NIH Exploratory/Developmental Research Grant (R21) award mechanism that the NHLBI does not accept the assignment of applications which focus primarily on cancer.   Since there are some areas of overlapping interest, e.g., basic aspects of hematological malignancies resulting from disruptions in hematopoiesis, myeloproliferative and myelodysplastic disorders, or the use of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and other cellular therapies, applicants are strongly encouraged to contact the NHLBI before submitting an application in response to this FOA .
