Section I. Funding Opportunity Description

Applicants should take note of the following special requirements and considerations:

1. Scope. The scope of this FOA includes prospective observational studies (for example, studies of typical care when multiple treatment modalities are used, natural experiments with changes in medical care or policies, studies where care differs based on geography, or cohort-based studies, among others). Limited studies of outcomes that are not included in typical care may be included (e.g., limited implementation of neuropsychological studies), as relevant to the proposed hypothesis.

All other aspects of this FOA remain unchanged.
