Grant Description

This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is soliciting applications to establish a national Center for Advancing Natural Product Innovation and Technology (CANPIT). The goal of this initiative is to improve upon and strengthen technologies and methods used in natural products research. The CANPIT, supported through the U41 cooperative agreement funding mechanism, is expected to overcome existing research limitations by developing and/or adapting cutting edge, innovative approaches and technologies that will have significant impact on the chemical and biological investigation of natural products. Importantly, the CANPIT is expected to serve a leadership role; coordinating intellectual scientific discourse and disseminating assembled methodology and best practices to the natural product research community. This FOA is being released in conjunction with the ODS Botanical Dietary Supplement Research Centers Program (see companion FOA, RFA-OD-14-001). Applicants applying under this CANPIT FOA are encouraged to collaborate with the Botanical Dietary Supplement Research Centers, and other NCCAM, ODS, and NIH supported grantees through CANPIT Technology Demonstration Projects (TDPs).
