Background
For background on NA-MIC, you can refer to our short NA-MIC overview. We are looking for a short text that addresses the following points:
Motivations and Procedure
The original RFA specified the following:
- In core 3, an investigator will propose 2-4 collaborations with NIH funded biomedical or behavioral researchers to address a biomedical/behavioral question using computational approaches. It is not essential that the biomedical researchers have expertise in computational biology, but they should have a question that will drive the fundamental computational research in cores 1 and 2. The purpose of this core is to ensure that the research carried out in cores 1 and 2 has direct relevance to biomedical or behavioral research. It may be useful for these Driving Biological Projects (DPB's) to have a focus on a particular disease or organ, but that sort of focus might not be appropriate for all NIH NCBCs. It is expected that many of the biomedical researchers in core 3 will not be at the same institution as the parent NIH NCBC. In such cases, convincing plans for collaboration at a distance must be presented in the proposal.
The DBP's for the 2010 round will be solicited by Ron Kikinis in consultation with the core 1 and core 2 PI's. The DBP's will participate in the development and implementation of the competitive renewal. Specifics of this process will be determined after the RFA has been released (sometimes in 2009).
Steps
Prerequisites
- Candidates have to have existing NIH funding (or comparable) as PI or co-investigator
- Joint publications with at least one Core 1 or Core 2 member or active participation in the NA-MIC project week events.
Requirements
- Willingness to fully adopt the NA-MIC kit
- NA-MIC funds are to be used to hire a software engineer to help in customization of NA-MIC software for the needs of the DBP.
- The DBP will use these accomplishments to become an ambassador of NA-MIC technology into their own scientific community
- By organizing training events/workshops etc. as a way to disseminate their capabilities
- By creating tutorials on how to use the NA-MIC technology for their own project
