NIH: Nanomaterials Health Implications Research (NHIR): Engineered Nanomaterials Resource and Coordination Core (U24) [RFA-ES-15-012]

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) seeks applications for an Engineered nanomaterials Resource and Coordination Core (ERCC) as part of NHIR. The ERCC will be responsible for providing well characterized ENMs to the NHIR consortium of U01 research projects being solicited through a companion FOA (RFA-ES-15-013). This consortium will generate biological response profiles for a select set of ENMs representing the landscape of nanotechnology applications. The ERCC will procure, synthesize, carryout comprehensive physicochemical characterization of ENMs, and distribute these materials to the research projects of the NHIR consortium.  In addition, the ERCC will coordinate collaborative activities of the NHIR consortium including organizing annual meetings of the consortium.
