Project Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) invites applications for Diabetes Research Centers that are designed to support and enhance the national research effort in diabetes, its complications, and related endocrine and metabolic diseases.  Diabetes Research Centers support two primary research-related activities:  Research Core services and a Pilot and Feasibility (P and F) program.  All activities pursued by Diabetes Research Centers are designed to enhance the efficiency, productivity, effectiveness, and multidisciplinary nature of research in Diabetes Research Center topic areas.

Amount per Award: Application budgets are limited to $1,000,000 per year in direct costs unless the applicant organization proposes to provide regional or national services as described in the Funding Opportunity Description section of the FOA.  Applications proposing a Regional/National Shared Research Core or expanded P and F Program are limited to $1,250,000 per year in direct costs
Duration of Award: 5 Years
Number of Awards: NIDDK intends to commit approximately $7.5M in Fiscal Year 2020 to fund 4-5 awards

Eligibility

Because a Diabetes Research Center has a large and complex administrative structure, the PD/PI must have strong leadership abilities and demonstrated proficiency in managing large, multi-component programs. The Diabetes Research Center PD(s)/PI(s) must also be willing to participate in annual meetings of the Center Directors.

UW-Madison is allowed to submit one application.
