Program snapshot
All organs in the body are stimulated by nerves, which send signals that affect the organ’s function. The NIH Common Fund’s Stimulating Peripheral Activity to Relieve Conditions (SPARC) program aims to transform our understanding of these nerve-organ interactions and ultimately advance the neuromodulation field toward precise treatment of diseases and conditions. To achieve this goal, the program has created the SPARC Portal, where researchers can Explore data, View maps, and Run computations.
