This grant opportunity supports preclinical research studying immune responses in animal models or human tissue related to face, limb, and abdominal wall transplants. The aim is to understand rejection and tolerance mechanisms better, and to develop new therapies and monitoring methods. Ultimately, the goal is to enhance clinical possibilities and improve the success rates of these transplant procedures.

The objective of this Notice of Special Interest (NOSI) is to encourage preclinical research in animal models of VCA or human composite tissue specimens that focus on understanding immune mechanisms of rejection and tolerance and the development of therapeutic and monitoring approaches that addr… Show More
