CCRP Initiative: Promoting a Basic Understanding of Chemical Threats to Skin

Funds basic research into how public-health chemical threats injure skin, aiming at future broad-spectrum countermeasures.

OpenNational Institutes of HealthUnited States

When a chemical disaster or attack happens, skin is often the first tissue exposed, and the biology of exactly how that damage unfolds is still not well mapped. This notice funds the basic science that closes that gap.

The scope is investigating the pathological mechanisms behind skin injuries caused by toxic Chemicals of Concern that the United States government has identified as public health tโ€ฆ

Basic research into the pathological mechanisms of skin injury caused by government-identified toxic Chemicals of Concern, feeding the trans-NIH Chemical Countermeasures Research Program's goal of early development of broad-spectrum medical countermeasures for chemical disasters and emergencies. A clinical trial is not allowed.
