The National Institute on Aging (NIA) intends to award a firm-fixed-price contract to The Jackson Laboratory for the iNDI FA13.1J Cell Lines Expansion and Distribution for the iPSC Neurodegenerative Disease Initiative (iNDI) Project. The project involves the expansion, quality control, curation, biobanking, and distribution of up to 936 isogenic Alzheimer's disease and related dementias (ADRD) induced pluripotent stem cell (iPSC) lines. The contractor will provide dedicated senior PhD accredited project manager to develop cell lines and make them available for purchase by the scientific community through a contractor-created website.
Some key requirements of the project include:
• Expansion and quality control of FA13.1J female SNV lines totaling 486 iPSC lines
• Expansion and quality control of 25 high-priority SNV trios across six additional iPSC lines totaling 450 iPSC lines
