The NHLBI Progenitor Cell Biology Consortium (PCBC) is soliciting applications for Pilot Studies. NHLBI makes funds available for PCBC pilot studies to foster innovative, high-risk approaches with a potential for unusually high impact to advance the understanding of the biology of stem and progenitor cells significantly. Pilot studies will be supported for a maximum of two years at $100,000 direct costs per year. Pilot studies that bridge between two or more Consortium Research Hubs will be given higher priority in order to enhance the development of synergies between Consortium investigators.

Full eligibility and requirement details are described here (DOC).
