Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health Title: Accelerating Behavioral and Social Science through Ontology Development and Use: Research Network Projects (U01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed) Application Deadline: October 03, 2023 This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications to support research projects focused on the expansion of existing or development of new ontologies for behavioral or social science research (BSSR). The research projects must include multi-disciplinary teams of subject matter experts in one or more BSSR fields, as well as ontology related informatics and computational approaches. Projects should address health-related behavioral and social science problems not easily solved without improvement in semantic knowledge structures (e.g., controlled vocabularies, taxonomies, and ontologies). Each project should identify one or more BSSR use cases and elucidate how the proposed ontological resources or tools to be developed and tested will advance BSSR research capabilities and efficiencies. This includes a plan for promoting dissemination and use of the resources and tools. Tools or resources proposed should include health-relevant terminology related to constructs, measures, and/or intervention components. Tools or resources must also account for socio-behavioral cultural context in vocabulary/ontology development. Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health Title: NIMHD Centers of Excellence in Investigator Development and Community Engagement (P50 - Clinical Trial Optional) Application Deadline: August 04, 2023 The purpose of this NOFO is to further advance NIMHDs mission by supporting Centers of Excellence to enhance research training and education of academic faculty (including post-doctoral fellows, junior faculty, and other early-stage investigators) in the conduct of minority health and health disparities research. Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health Title: Assessment of TBI-related ADRD Pathology Related to Cognitive Impairment and Dementia Outcomes (U01 - Clinical Trial Not Allowed) Application Deadline: July 28, 2023 This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) invites applications for a multisite study to comprehensively characterize ADRD relevant pathology related to cognitive impairment and dementia outcomes in post-mortem brains from persons with a history of traumatic brain injury (TBI). Investigations should elucidate the contribution of key individual (sex, age at time of injury, time since injury, social determinants of health, etc.) and injury characteristics (injury severity and frequency) to evaluate associations between neuropathological burden and antemortem clinicopathologic symptoms and outline the prevalence of TBI-related ADRD diagnoses, and CTE pathology in the specimen collected from participating brain banks. This NOFO intends to support applications that include retrospective samples, plans to acquire new brain tissue specimens, and methods to assess the antemortem symptomatology and clinical presentation. To further advance research in the area, broad sharing of clinical and neuropathological data will be a critical feature of successful applications, including the development of a digital resource for distribution and sharing of assessed neuropathological tissue. Funding Agency: Administration for Children and Families Title: Title V Competitive Sexual Risk Avoidance Education Application Deadline: July 18, 2023 This Forecast is modified to correct the Estimated Total Funding from $9,000,000 to $4,719,633. The Estimated Post Date and Estimated Application Due Date have remained the same.The purpose of the Competitive SRAE Program is to fund projects to implement sexual risk avoidance education that teach participants how to voluntarily refrain from non-marital sexual activity. Successful applicants are expected to submit plans for the implementation of sexual risk avoidance education that normalizes the optimal health behavior of avoiding non-marital sexual activity, with a focus on the future health, psychological wellbeing, and economic success of youth. Applicants must agree to: 1) use medically accurate information referenced to peer-reviewed publications by educational, scientific, governmental, or health organizations; implement an evidence-based approach integrating research findings with practical implementation that aligns with the needs and desired outcomes for the intended audience; and 2) teach the benefits associated with self-regulation, success sequencing for poverty prevention, healthy relationships, goal setting, resisting sexual coercion, dating violence, and other youth risk behaviors such as underage drinking or illicit drug use without normalizing teen sexual activity. Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health Title: National Centers for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NCBIB) (P41 Clinical Trials Optional) Anticipated Application Deadline: September 25, 2023 The purpose of this notice is to inform the research community that the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB) intends to reissue a Notice of Funding Opportunity PAR-20-169 "National Centers for Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NCBIB) (P41 Clinical Trials Optional)." Funding Agency: National Institutes of Health Title: Leveraging Social Networks to Promote Widespread Individual Behavior Change (R34 Clinical Trial Optional) Anticipated Application Deadline: November 17, 2023 This Notice informs the research community that the National Institute on Aging (NIA) and the National Cancer Institute (NCI) intend to issue a Request for Applications (RFA) for new applications proposing R34 projects that support the planning activities necessary to develop social network interventions to promote health across the lifespan, especially in populations in which such interventions are currently largely underdeveloped and untested (such as populations in mid- and late life). Applications supported through this RFA will focus on planning activities for social network interventions for which a target interpersonal process of behavior change or social network characteristic has already been identified. Planning activities are those activities that are expected to yield necessary and sufficient information to inform final decisions about a social network health behavior change intervention prior to instigation of a hypothesis-driven trial to test a social network intervention. Activities may include (but are not limited to) team-building, protocol development, piloting of systems for data collection and/or management, feasibility and acceptability testing, staff training, and establishing documentation procedures. Projects that propose to test the efficacy or effectiveness of a social network health behavior change intervention will be outside the scope of the RFA, which will support only on pre-trial planning and development activities.
