- Description
- The SMA Project (http://www.smaproject.org) is currently requesting proposals for a service facility with capabilities for implementing and conducting a defined battery of bioactivity screening assays in cellular models of SMA, in order to further preclinical development of candidate small molecule compounds for the treatment of SMA. The SMA Project may make more than one award for this service facility. Proposals are due on December 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 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.
