Synopsis
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) encourages research grant applications directed toward developing next-generation human cell-derived microphysiological systems (MPS) and related assays that replicate complex nervous system architectures and physiology with improved fidelity over current capabilities. Supported projects will be expected to enable future studies of complex nervous system development, function and aging in healthy and disease states.

Tell me when this program posts again
This round has closed. One email the morning after this program is posted again under a new number (we watch for about two years), and one more about a week before that round closes (the next morning, if it is already closer than that). That is all this sends — it is not a newsletter signup.
