Part 2. Full Text of Announcement

Section I. Funding Opportunity Description

Research Objectives

Currently reads:

Centers are also expected to demonstrate the potential to leverage existing NIH- or other federally- funded cohorts, networks, and/or consortia to conduct chronic disease disparities research and disseminate findings, including but not limited to primary care practice-based research centers (PBRNs), or chronic disease or other research centers currently supported by NIMHD (see https://www.nimhd.nih.gov/programs/extramural/research-centers/), NCI (see https://www.cancer.gov/research/infrastructure/cancer-centers, NHLBI, NIDDK (see https://www.niddk.nih.gov/about-niddk/research-areas/research-centers, and/or NCATS (see https://ncats.nih.gov/ctsa). Applicants are encouraged to identify existing centers or other programs on the websites of these Institutes and Centers, as well as on NIH RePORTER (https://reporter.nih.gov/). Centers will collaborate with a to-be-funded NIMHD Chronic Disease Disparities Coordinating Center that will work with the Centers to coordinate common activities and meetings, communication with NIH staff, harmonize data as appropriate, agree on data sharing principles, facilitate cross-center research resources, provide opportunities for mentoring of early career scholars, and share and disseminate project findings.
