Centers Program

Centers grants are designed to support shared resources and/or multidisciplinary research teams. NIAMS supports Resource-based Centers, Core Centers for Clinical Research (CCCR), Centers of Research Translation (CORT) and the Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Research Network.

NIAMS periodically reviews the programs it funds to ensure that taxpayer dollars are used efficiently to promote the best possible science. NIAMS formed a Centers Evaluation Working Group (CEWG) to advise the Institute as to how its Centers program could be more responsive to current research needs and opportunities.

In this NIAMS Centers Evaluation Working Group Report, the CEWG attempts to convey to NIAMS the needs and opportunities identified by investigators and patient groups within the NIAMS mission areas.
