The National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) announces the availability of Administrative Supplements to provide travel support for awardees of the Synthetic Biology for Biomedical Applications Notice (NOT-EB-20-017) to attend the annual NIH Synthetic Biology Consortium Meeting (eligible applicants are those who have received an award made in response to NOT-EB-20-017).
The purpose of this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to announce that the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH), the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Institute of Aging (NIA), the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB), the Eunice Kennedy Shriver Nati

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications to develop and apply innovative synthetic biology approaches to address challenges across the spectrum of cancer research. Projects will be required to apply a technology, based on an engineered biological system, to an important and well-defined cancer research question. Collaborative transdisciplinary teams are expected with PIs representing expertise in cancer research, engineering, and other disciplines relevant to synthetic biology.

Welcoming Remarks Bruce Tromberg, NIBIB Institute Director | ||||
Current developments in synthetic biology have offered tools to design or modify organisms that can be used for a specific function, allowing for natural biological systems to be tailored as machines that produce desired compounds. Further, synthetic biology has a broad application and can be used to synthesize biologically relevant compounds and therapeutics that are not easily and/or not cost-effectively produced in a traditional laboratory setting.
