Specific Research Interests of the FOA Sponsors
The following text is added to this section:
The National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities (NIMHD) leads scientific research to improve racial/ethnic minority health and eliminate health disparities in the United States. As noncommunicable diseases are rapidly becoming a dominant cause of poor health globally, NIMHD has an interest in funding exploratory research, including biological, environmental, sociocultural, clinical, and behavioral research in LMIC regions and countries that have significant immigration to the United States.
The Office of Research on Women’s Health (ORWH) is interested in funding applications that address the significant role of sex and gender in the onset, prognosis, treatment, and prevention of NCDs. ORWH is also interested in funding applications focused on investigating the contribution of sex and gender in injury, including but not limited to those injuries associated with intimate partner violence, domestic violence, and violence against women. Information about the ORWH mission and strategic plan can be found at: http://orwh.od.nih.gov/research/strategicplan/ORWH_StrategicPlan2020_Vol1.pdf
