Purpose

The National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) and the participating Institutes, Centers, and Offices are holding a pre-application webinar related to the recently released Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) RFA-NR-24-005: Strategies to Improve Health Outcomes and Advance Health Equity in Rural Populations (R01 Clinical Trial Optional). The purpose of this initiative is to support research to improve health and promote health equity in rural populations. Rural populations experience high rates of many causes of morbidity and disability, and high and increasing rates of premature death. Meaningful and sustained improvements in the health of rural populations require effective solutions to address the underlying causes. Applications responding to this NOFO should develop, adapt, or implement intervention strategies addressing social determinants of health (SDOH) to improve health and promote health equity in rural populations. This funding opportunity encourages studies that use a wide range of methodological approaches that enhance access to, and acceptability and effectiveness of, interventions in rural populations, such as community-engaged research approaches that build on the strengths of rural communities.

This webinar will provide an overview of the NOFO. NIH staff will discuss the purpose and scope of this funding opportunity, go over the scientific review process and review criteria, and share the specific research interests of NINR and of the participating Institutes, Centers, and Offices. NIH staff will also address questions submitted in advance of the webinar.

Please register to attend the webinar. Participants are asked to submit their questions in advance of the webinar on their registration form. Participation in the webinar is encouraged but not required in order to submit an application in response to this funding opportunity.
