NIH Support
National Institutes of Health (NIH)
SIREN is funded by NIH through cooperative agreements. NIH Scientific and Administrative Program Directors collaborate directly with the investigators in this kind of award, and are integral team members in all network activities. In a true trans-NIH effort, three Institute-Centers, NINDS, NHBLI, and NCATS, and the NIH Office of Emergency Care Research have joined together to create the network.
