Hao Wang, Ph.D., Program Director, NINDS
Duration: 1 hour Description:
To facilitate therapeutic discovery and development by the neuroscience community, the NINDS recently redesigned their translational programs, which is a suite of complementary programs to encourage the translation of research discoveries into new treatments for disorders that fall under the NINDS mission. 

The NINDS Cooperative Research to Enable and Advance Translational Enterprises for Biotechnology Products and Biologics (CREATE Bio) program is dedicated to biotechnology product- and biologics-based therapies, which broadly include modalities such as peptides, proteins, oligonucleotides, gene therapies, and cell therapies. The program includes two tracks: the Discovery Track supports lead optimization in order to obtain a candidate appropriate for entering the Development Track, and the Development Track supports IND-enabling studies for the candidate, as well as early-phase clinical trials. Dr. Wang will give an overview of the CREATE Bio program and general guidance for applications.
