RFA 09-01: CIRM Disease Team Research Awards

The CIRM Disease Team Research Awards will fund actively managed multidisciplinary teams engaged in milestone-driven translational research for the development of stem cell-based therapies. The mission of these teams will be to conduct the necessary research and regulatory activities to prepare and file a complete, well supported Investigational New Drug Application (IND) with the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) (and, if desired, other regulatory agencies), to enable Phase I clinical testing. This RFA includes CIRM’s Collaborative Funding Partner Program, and the CIRM Loan Program.

RFA 08-07: CIRM Basic Biology Awards I

The CIRM Basic Biology Awards I program will fund research grants to investigate basic mechanisms underlying stem cell biology, cellular plasticity, and cellular differentiation.  Studies supported by these awards will form the foundation for future translational and clinical advances, enabling the realization of the full potential of human stem cells and reprogrammed cells for therapies and as tools for biomedical innovation.

PA 08-06: CIRM Conference Grants

This Program Announcement (PA) will support the development and conduct of scientific conferences relevant to stem cell research. A scientific conference is defined as an organized event where persons physically assemble to exchange scientific information or explore a defined scientific subject. Support of such conferences is contingent on the fiscal and programmatic priorities of CIRM. Conference grant awards are open to non-profit organizations in California.
