This FOA invites basic, translational and clinical studies to accelerate research into promising therapeutic approaches for spasmodic dysphonia and to stimulate progress in spasmodic dysphonia research through encouraging and facilitating transdisciplinary interactions. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the R21 Research Project Grant mechanism and runs in parallel with a FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-10-157 that invites applications under the R01 Research Project Grant mechanism.
