The NIDDK will only accept applications in the following research areas:

Imaging/ Modeling

  • Imaging pancreatic beta cell function, mass and transplantation;
  • Novel, non-invasive technologies to detect: the presence or activity of inflammatory conditions of the gastrointestinal tract such as IBD; the presence of metaplasia or dysplasia in Barrett's esophagus or ulcerative colitis; the presence and severity of functional GI disorders such as IBS; and, diagnostic imaging and functional assessment of the kidney and urinary tract;

Devices:

  • development of glucose sensors and bioartificial endocrine pancreas;artificial liver support devices; devices for physiological testing of the GI tract (e.g., esophageal motility testing); insertion of nanodevices into red blood cells for diagnostic use; and, devices for improved hemodialysis access.

Other:

  • Bioengineering projects to improve pancreatic islet transplantation; new methods (not SQUID or MRI) to detect liver iron; novel, non-invasive technologies to measure hepatic fibrosis or portal pressure; and, improved preservation of tissues for transplantation.
