Biologic Specimen and Data Repository Information Coordinating Center (BIOLINCC)
BioLINCC is a centralized biorepository and data repository with 4.9 million specimens from 73 unique collections.
|
Gene Therapy Resource Program (GTRP)
GTRP facilitates the translation of gene therapy research into clinical interventions.
|
Science Moving Towards Research Translation and Therapy (SMARTT)
SMARTT provides preclinical development, manufacturing, pharmacology/toxicology studies, and regulatory affairs support, but does not support drug discovery or clinical trials.
|
Production Assistance for Cellular Therapeutics (PACT)
PACT has one coordinating center and five cell processing facilities, and services offered span preclinical and Phase I studies, including toxicity and dose studies needed for IND filing.

NIH-Level Resources
|
National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS)
This NIH Center strives to develop innovations to reduce, remove or bypass costly and time-consuming bottlenecks in the translational research pipeline in an effort to speed the delivery of new drugs, diagnostics and medical devices to patients. (Programs include BrIDGs, TRND, TDP, MLP)
|
Bridging Interventional Development Gaps (BRIDGS)
The BrIDGs program (part of NCATS) offers preclinical study resources free of charge to investigators. It is open to academics, nonprofit organizations, and SBIR-eligible businesses.
|
Molecular Libraries Probe Production Center
The MLP program (part of NCATS) offers investigators access to large-scale small molecule screening, as well as medicinal chemistry and informatics needed to identify chemical probes.
|
Therapeutics Discovery Pilot Program (TDP)
The TDP (part of NCATS) seeks to discover new therapeutic uses for existing drugs through partnerships between pharmaceutical companies and the biomedical research community to advance therapeutics development.
|
Therapeutics for Rare and Neglected Diseases (TRND)
The TRND program (part of NCATS) offers drug development through collaboration between NCATS and NIH-funded laboratories. Eligible projects are small molecules or proteins in preclinical development to treat FDA orphan diseases or World Health Organization (WHO) neglected tropical diseases.
