NIGMS A relatively small proportion of IDeA-funded centers and networks focus on developing clinical and community-based translational research capacity It is critically important to translate the many biomedical research advances from IDeA states into better health outcomes by forging partnerships between basic and clinical scientists in IDeA institutions, supported by programs across NCRR and NIH IDeA-CTR Program: B ACKGROUND AND R ATIONALE

NIGMS June 2010: NCRR issued a Request for Information (RFI) titled “Clinical and Translational Research Infrastructure in Institutional Development Award (IDeA) Program Institutions” (NOT-RR )NOT-RR December 2010: NCRR convened an expert Advisory Panel to review RFI responses and discuss next steps at a workshop with NCRR staff in Bethesda January 2011: Concept clearance obtained from NCRR’s Advisory Council to publish FOA June 2011: Funding Opportunity Announcement is published (PAR ).PAR IDeA-CTR Program: T IMELINES
