BRAIN Initiative: Tools for Germline Gene Editing in Marmosets (U01 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

Funding Agency:
National Institutes of Health

The purpose of this FOA is to develop tools and technologies to conduct scientifically rigorous, ethical, efficient, and cost-effective research, as well as develop necessary infrastructure, that supports germline and somatic transgenic and gene editing studies in the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus). These studies should answer crucial scientific questions that require genetic perturbation in a non-human primate model organism, as well as support the Brain Research through Advancing Innovative Neurotechnologies (BRAIN) goals of understanding the brain in health and disease.
