Grant Description

Purpose. This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) issued by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR), the National Cancer Institute (NCI), the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD), the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR), National Institutes of Health (NIH), solicits Research Project Grant (R21) applications from institutions/organizations that propose to foster biobehavioral research and develop innovative research designs, methods of measurement, and data analysis techniques. Designs and methods that examine the impact of biologic and behavioral variables on individuals' health outcomes and quality of life are encouraged. Scientists are encouraged to increase the interface of biobehavioral research and clinical practice in existing core and exploratory centers and training programs by sharing findings and designing collaborative research projects. Ideally, interdisciplinary researchers should overcome differences in perspectives, incentives, and methods by going beyond usual collaborations to engage others to solve problems creatively and efficiently.
