Hi DCOP members!

Wanted to bring this [AMP ALS funding opportunity](https://fnih.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/RFP-Template_TDP43-Cryptic-Antibody_4-April-2025_FINAL.pdf) to your attention. While most of us do work in PD, I’m sure there are some that do ALS work as well or have colleagues that could be a fit for this funding opportunity!

The FNIH is requesting proposals for the development of reagents that specifically detect cryptic peptides (or differentially expressed protein variants) that arise due to TDP-43-linked pathology in human biofluids using established technologies. Applications are due June 1st.

This is a fantastic funding opportunity, especially with uncertainty with NIH budgets, so definitely cosnider applying if it is within your scope of research!

Thanks,  
Victoria
