Purpose. The National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) encourage NIH Research Demonstration and Dissemination Project grant (R18) applications from institutions/ organizations to test the effectiveness of interventions for the prevention and control of diabetes and obesity that have a high potential to be adopted, and sustained in applied health care settings. The approaches tested must be based on widely accepted interventions previously demonstrated to be efficacious in clinical trials. Research must target the prevention or reversal of obesity, prevention of type 2 diabetes, improved care of type 1 and type 2 diabetes, or the prevention or delay of the complications of these conditions. The interventions proposed under this FOA should have the potential to be widely disseminated to clinical practice, individuals and communities at risk. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Demonstration and Dissemination Project (R18) grant mechanism A companion Planning Grant announcement of identical scientific scope utilizes the Translational research project grant (R34) mechanism PAR-09-177.
