The overall goal of the MetNet is to advance our understanding of metastasis as a whole body, systems-level problem to develop a comprehensive and cohesive picture of the processes involved. Through this program, the NCI invites applications for MetNet Research Projects. These Research Projects should be defined as discrete entities that use systems-level approaches to address gaps and opportunities in metastasis research to integrate into the MetNet and complement ongoing research across the Network.
NIDCD invites applications for early-stage dissemination and implementation (D&I) research projects (e.g., during development and evaluation of the evidence-based innovation, EBI) in the NIDCD mission areas of hearing, balance, taste, smell, voice, speech, and language.
