Funding Opportunities for Translational Research

Objective

The mission of the California Institute for Regenerative Medicine (CIRM) is to accelerate world-class science and deliver transformative regenerative medicine treatments in an equitable manner to a diverse California and world.

The objective of this initiative is to create a highly competitive opportunity for promising regenerative medicine (stem cell-based or genetic therapy) projects that accelerate the completion of translational stage activities necessary for advancement to clinical study or broad-end use for any one of the following product types:

  • TRAN1: Stem cell-based or genetic therapy therapeutic candidate 
  • TRAN2: Diagnostic (including medical imaging agents) based on stem cells, or critical for stem cell-based or genetic therapy development or use
  • TRAN3: Medical device (non-diagnostic) for a stem cell-based therapy or critical for stem cell-based or genetic therapy development or use
  • TRAN4: Novel tool that addresses a critical bottleneck to the discovery or development of stem cell-based or genetic therapy

Please see the Program Announcement for full details.
