Purpose

This Notice is to inform potential applicants that the NHLBI announces its participation in PA-11-347, "NINDS SBIR Technology Transfer (SBIR-TT [R43/R44]).”  The NHLBI seeks SBIR applications for projects to transfer technologies out of the NHLBI intramural research labs into the private sector that address mechanisms, diseases, or disorders within the NHLBI mission.

• Any project that fits within the NHLBI mission and relies on the use of an NHLBI intramural technology is eligible for this award. Please see the NHLBI Office of Technology Transfer and Development for more details on NHLBI licensing opportunities: http://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/resources/tt/index.htm
• The NHLBI Division of Intramural Research performs high quality and innovative research in a variety of basic, translational, and clinical areas, including imaging, diagnostics, regenerative medicine, genetics/genomics, developmental biology, cellular and gene therapy, and cell and molecular biology related to heart, lung, blood, and sleep disorders and diseases. For more information about the research and investigators in the NHLBI Division of Intramural Research, please see: https://intramural.nhlbi.nih.gov/default.aspx
• An NHLBI intramural investigator may provide assistance in a collaborative manner by providing technology, reagents and/or discussions during the SBIR award period; however, no SBIR funds are allowed to go to the NIH intramural investigator or the NIH intramural program.

All other aspects of the FOA remain unchanged.
