2009-2010 Seeding Collaborative Research in Beta Cell Biology Program

We are pleased to announce the release of a new Seeding Collaborative Research in Beta Cell Biology (SCRBCB) program.

The SCRBCB program provides research support for a limited time (18 months) to enable eligible investigators to explore the feasibility of a concept related to the mission of the BCBC and generate sufficient data to pursue it through future funding mechanisms. The SCRBCB program provides funding for specific types of research activities that will help the consortium to get closer to its ultimate goal of providing cell-based therapeutic solutions to the chronic depletion of beta-cell mass observed in  type-1 and severe type-2 diabetes. Please refer to the program description below for background information, research areas, and requirements of eligibility.
