Centers for Medical Countermeasures against Radiation Consortium (U19)
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) on the Centers for Medical Countermeasures against Radiation Consortium (CMCRC) solicits applications to participate in a network of national research centers to develop effective and comprehensive medical countermeasures applicable to all subsets of the civilian population in the event of radiological or nuclear emergencies. Applications are sought that propose multidisciplinary basic and translational research to support the development of new medical products that will assess, diagnose, mitigate and/or treat the short- and long-term consequences of radiation exposure after a radiological/nuclear terrorist event or accidental exposure. The goals of this FOA are to: 1) produce new techniques and devices to measure radiation exposure in the human body; 2) follow biomarkers of tissue damage and recovery; and 3) develop novel therapies to minimize tissue damage, hasten tissue recovery, restore normal physiological function, and improve survival.
