Teams of at least three key investigators whose primary expertise lie in different disciplines are eligible to pply. Key investigators must have advanced degrees (M.D., Ph.D., M.D./Ph.D., or the equivalent), and one of the key investigators must be a clinical researcher. The team leader must work in a United States nonprofit institution, such as an academic medical center. The team may include investigators at other institutions in the United States and overseas.
