National Institute of Mental Health

The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) recently issued four contracts 
to support multi-site clinical trials in schizophrenia, Alzheimer’s disease, 
bipolar disorder, treatment resistant depression, and adolescent depression.  
Information about these trials is available on the NIMH website at 
http://www.nimh.nih.gov/studies/index.cfm.  NIMH also recently issued PAR-00-
095, located at http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PAR-00-095.html, 
inviting applications for ancillary studies that extend the utility of the 
national resource created in these trials. The purpose of ancillary studies 
is to promote innovative lines of scientific inquiry regarding the 
understanding and treatment of mental disorders.
NIMH is also committed to a broad spectrum of Career Development Programs, 
all of which are discussed on our Website located at 
http://www.nimh.nih.gov/grants/career.htm. This page includes descriptions 
and links to each one of the specific announcements for these programs. This 
Notice is to encourage persons who may be interested in these Career 
Development Programs to consider ancillary studies as part of their 
application submitted under one of the Career Development announcements.
