Suppertime, when the grant is finally awarded, the NORD-chosen researcher(s) will let us know what they need from us.

Do we know how long it will take before they start research, and how long is it estimated that the research will take?

nennex, the RFP should give you a sense of timelines in this process.

Any news on how the POIS research is going with the $30,000 NORD grant? Or any news on when there will be some more news?

Quote from: Kima on November 16, 2013, 12:26:40 PM

hello
demografx
 
When will the [POIS] research [begin with NORD]?

thank you


This December.

I should be getting an update first week in December, maybe not who or what yet, but they are in the final throes of choosing the researcher.

So very soon we should know.

The first real professionally administered and controlled research on POIS.

Whatever the results, it will have to be useful.

I'll let you all know when the news comes out.

It has to be imminent... any day now. They are processing other grants as well, and there are formalities and winners must be confirmed ... all that.

I really hope we hear something before the week is out.

Fingers crossed!

Niacin has changed my lif though, now 1 day MAX.
Somewhere in this interaction with Niacin is the answer!

Yeah, formalities more than anything.

All grants had been reduced to three finalists, who submited detailed applications. Then they were re-scored, because the full application has all the detail, not just a summary.

Then once the finalist has been chosen, as a formality, they just have to make sure that he is still ready. (No-one on the team got sick or heaven forbid,
died or whatever). Those kind of formalities. If (s)he made a formal application only a short time before, it is not likely that they would not be available barring some
disaster.

Waiting is painful. Hopefully they will let us know VERY soon!!

POIS GRANT AWARDED/ACCEPTED 5:00 PM EST THURSDAY EVENING!

Barry Komisaruk, PhD from Rutgers University in New Jersey, is the award recipient and the Principal Investigator for the first formal POIS study. He will be working in conjunction with an MD from Rutgers.

The research will focus on fMRI's in men with POIS, will include control subjects for comparison, and will examine brain function before, during and after orgasm.

The purpose of the study is to observe reactions and structural changes that may be occurring in the brains of POIS sufferers -- changes which explain the severe cognitive impairments of POIS, and also potentially explain the general physical reactions as a whole (pain, headache, severe fatigue, as examples).

If brain reactions are found, this will lead to determining the cause of POiS -- but more importantly -- may well elucidate treatments that are available now-- to counteract these changes.

Landmark study!!!!  More to follow!!!!

Sounds promising. I hope he examines as many sufferers as possible. The wider the range, the better. Separate teams of people with mainly mental / mainly physical symptoms could perhaps help to faster establish a specific pattern.
