Grant Description

Purpose. The NIDCD is encouraging R24 Developmental Grant applications that will lead to research addressing accessible and affordable hearing health care (HHC) for adults with mild to moderate hearing loss. The intent of this FOA is to provide support for the creation of new partnerships among researchers and/or between researchers and interested organizations (e.g., academia, health care organizations, industry, and patient organizations) and for the conduct of developmental and planning activities for future research applications. The final objective of the R24 must be the submission of specific competitive research grant applications (i.e., R01s, R21s, R43/R44, P50s). The R24 is designed to support new collaborations and is not designed to support groups of investigators who would normally interact and collaborate in the absence of an R24. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the R24 Resource-Related Research Project grant mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. This FOA has 2 receipt dates. The NIDCD intends to commit $500,000 in 2011 to fund 2 new grants in response to each submission date of this FOA.
