Nanoscience and Nanotechnology in Biology and Medicine (R01: PAR-08-052); (R21: PAR-08-053)
This funding opportunity (FOA) is aimed at enhancing nanoscience and nanotechnology research focused on problems in biology and medicine. Nanoscience and nanotechnology refer to research and development on the understanding and control of matter at a length scale of approximately 1 - 100 nanometers, where novel properties and functions occur because of the size. The National Cancer Institute (NCI) is interested in: 1. Early detection of the disease using imaging, 2. In vitro early diagnostics: multiplexed sensitive and specific sensors, 3. Multi-functional therapeutics and localized therapy delivery, and 4. Tools and approaches to interrogate, understand, and manipulate single cells, structures , and molecules.
