Announcements
We at NCCIH are excited to announce our grant for a new Center of Excellence for Natural Product Drug Interaction Research, a funding opportunity announcement about which I blogged in 2014. The award totals approximately $10 million over a period of 5 years.
The study of natural
product-drug interactions is an important priority area for NCCIH in light of
the widespread availability and use of these products by the public. Read more
