[MEMBERS ONLY] Grant Funding for Secondary Studies in ARDS, Pneumonia, and Sepsis (APS): An Informational Webinar on the APS Consortium Protocol and Leveraging Biospecimens from Other NIH Programs

 
 

Summary

This webinar will help Weil members identify grant opportunities for studies on ARDS, pneumonia, and sepsis.

Weil Institute leaders and members were recently awarded an NIH grant to lead a clinical center for the ARDS, Pneumonia and Sepsis (APS) Phenotyping Consortium, involving a prospective, longitudinal observational study with common data and biospecimen collection of 5,000 adults hospitalized with APS across the nation.

In this webinar, Dr. Robert Dickson and Dr. Kathleen Stringer will share the finalized APS protocol, allowing Weil members to plan future NIH grant submissions leveraging the APS data and biospecimens that will be collected. Drs. Dickson and Stringer will also discuss how NIGMS and NHLBI will support new grants that leverage the APS Consortium, as well as other NIH biorepositories that investigators can leverage for secondary studies, such as NHLBI’s BioLINCC.

NOTE: This event is open to Weil members only.
