Industry

NIH StrokeNet (NSTN) is a National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)/ NIH initiative to conduct Phase I/II and III trials in stroke prevention, treatment and recovery. Industry and small businesses may apply for cooperative agreement grants. All proposals are evaluated for mission relevance and institute priority by NINDS and for network feasibility by the NSTN executive and steering committees. The scientific review of the proposal occurs after the grant application has been submitted for peer-and council-review. Funding decisions are made based on the results of those reviews.
