In Part 2, under Section I. Funding Opportunity Description, the NIMHD Statement of Interest is modified (by this Notice) to read (in bold italics):

NIMHD Statement of Interest

The mission of the NIMHD is to lead scientific research to improve minority health and reduce health disparities. NIMHD supports the study of many aspects of minority health and health disparities from biological and population sciences to clinical, behavioral, and translational research, as well as research on health care services, health systems and workforce development. NIMHD focuses on the full continuum of causes of health disparities and the interrelation of these causes. Projects must include a focus on one or more of the following NIH-designated populations that experience health disparities in the United States: African Americans, Latinos/Hispanics, American Indians and Alaska Natives, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and other Pacific Islanders, less privileged socioeconomic groups, underserved rural populations, persons with disabilities, and sexual and gender minorities (SGMs). NIMHD research priorities are focused on racial and ethnic minority populations and socioeconomically disadvantaged populations and specifically interested in the intersectionality of these factors among rural populations, SGM groups, and people with disabilities. See https://www.nimhd.nih.gov/news-events/news-releases/2023/pillars-of-health-disparities-science.html for more information. Comparison groups/populations may also be included as appropriate for the research questions posed. NIMHD encourages projects that use approaches encompassing multiple domains of influence (e.g., biological, behavioral, sociocultural, environmental, physical environment, health system) and multiple levels of influence (e.g., individual, interpersonal, family, peer group, community, societal) to understand and address health disparities (see the NIMHD Research Framework, https://www.nimhd.nih.gov/about/overview/research-framework.html, for more information).

NIMHD will not support animal studies under this FOA.

NOTE: All other aspects of this NOFO remain unchanged.
