Details:
The NIH Research Education Program (R25) supports research education activities in the mission areas of the NIH. The overarching goal of this R25 program is to support educational activities that foster a better understanding of biomedical, behavioral and clinical research and its implications.
To accomplish the stated over-arching goal, this NOFO will support educational activities with a primary focus on:
- Courses for Skills Development
- For example, advanced courses in a specific discipline or research area, clinical procedures for research, or specialized research techniques. Research education programs may complement ongoing research training and education occurring at the applicant institution, but the proposed educational experiences must be distinct from those training and education programs currently receiving Federal support. Research education programs may augment institutional research training programs (e.g., T32, T90) but cannot be used to replace or circumvent Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award (NRSA) programs.
The Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) and participating NIH Institutes, Centers and Offices announce this new funding opportunity to advance the goals of the NIH Implementing a Maternal health and PRegnancy Outcomes Vision for Everyone (IMPROVE) Initiative. IMPROVE aims to understand the biological, behavioral, environmental, sociocultural, and structural factors that affect pregnancy-related and pregnancy-associated morbidity and mortality and build an evidence base for improved care and outcomes. The initiative promotes research to address health disparities associated with pregnancy-related and pregnancy-associated morbidity and mortality and supports research to reduce preventable causes of maternal deaths and improve health for women before, during, and after delivery.
NIH-designated Populations with Health Disparities (HDPs) refers to racial and ethnic minorities, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, underserved rural populations, people with disabilities, and sexual and gender minorities in the U.S. NIH-designated U.S. health disparity populations include Blacks/African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians/Alaska Natives, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, underserved rural populations, and sexual and gender minorities. This initiative also targets populations disproportionally impacted by maternal mortality including very young individuals, individuals of advanced maternal age, and individuals with disabilities.
