• September 26, 2023 - Developing novel theory and methods for understanding the genetic architecture of complex human traits (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed). See NOFO PAR-23-302

Issued by

National Cancer Institute (NCI)

Purpose

The purpose of this notice is to inform potential applicants that the National Cancer Institute (NCI) will participate, effective immediately in PAR-23-302,  Developing novel theory and methods for understanding the genetic architecture of complex human traits (R01 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The following changes and updates are made to PAR-23-302 (shown in bold italics) to reflect NCI’s participation:

Part 1. Overview Information, Participating Organization(s)

National Cancer Institute (NCI)

National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI)

Assistance Listing Number(s)

93.399;  93.172

Part 2. Full Text of Announcement, Section I. Funding Opportunity Description

Specific Areas of Research Interest

NCI is interested in applications that use systems epidemiology modeling or analysis approaches to advance the understanding of multilevel and dynamic factors that affect cancer risk and related outcomes, including factors that contribute to cancer disparities. For applications to be considered responsive to NCI interest, they will need to include all three of the following components: i) integrate germline genetic and environmental data, ii) utilize data across multiple scales (e.g., biological, social, or ecological organization), and iii) consider dynamism or multiple time points in the analysis.

Part 2. Full Text of Announcement, Section II.  Award Budget

Application budgets are not limited but need to reflect the actual needs of the proposed project.

For NCI applications, the budget is limited to $350,000 direct costs per year and should reflect the actual needs of the proposed project.
