Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF): Improved Assays for Predicting Risk for T1D - EOI

Expressions of interest are sought to optimize and/or validate existing platforms for use in predicting risk of T1D, both prior to and after development of AAbs. These assays should meet the following criteria for general population-based screening, which may include newborn or childhood-based screening methods: a. Selectivity, sensitivity, ease of use b. High-throughput capacity c. Low volume needed d. Low cost e. Possibility for the assay to be deployed as point-of-care testing. This EOI will not support the development of new technologies or assays. Funding: up to $200K/yr for up to 2 yrs.
