- Description
- The SMA Project (http://www.smaproject.org) is currently requesting proposals to identify a service facility to test small molecules in cell-based assays of SMA. In addition, the facility should be able to perform a variety of in vitro bioactivity assays on specimens received from other SMA project facilities. Proposals are due on September 21, 2004. Proposals and accompanying documents can be accessed through the ?Open Solicitations? page of the SMA Project website (http://www.smaproject.org/Solicitations/opensolicitations.htm). The SMA Project may make more than one award for an in vitro service facility. The National Institute for Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS) (http://www.ninds.nih.gov/) launched The SMA Project: A Collaborative Program to Accelerate Therapeutics Development for Spinal Muscular Atrophy in September 2003. This program funds milestone-driven research aimed at identifying and rapidly developing a treatment for SMA, a paralyzing neurodegenerative disease of childhood. Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) is supporting the NINDS in the management of this program. Any responsible offeror may submit a proposal to be considered by SAIC.
