HIRN Catalyst Award (2021) |
The Human Islet Research Network (HIRN) announces a new funding initiative to support
investigators developing bold, innovative, and challenging projects that will catalyze the field of
type 1 diabetes research and provide important advances in topics of interest to the network. To be considered “catalyzing”, the proposed research must address significant and currently
intractable problems by employing approaches or ideas that are currently outside the
mainstream of contemporary research. |
