Find Funding Opportunities

The FOA is expected to be published in early 2022 with an expected application due date in Fall 2022. (from NOT-DA-21-085, TJZ 3/11/2022).

The Office of Research on Womens Health (ORWH) announces the availability of administrative supplements to support research highlighting health inequities among women in the United States who are understudied, underrepresented and underreported (U3) in biomedical research. Robust studies exploring sex and gender influences and social determinants of health are needed to reduce inequities. The proposed research must address at least one objective from strategic goals 1, 2, or 3 of the 2019-2023 Trans-NIH Strategic Plan for Womens Health Research, Advancing Science for the Health of Women.

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications to renew current ECHO Cohort Study Sites to extend and expand the capacity of the ECHO Cohort to further investigate the roles of a broad range of early exposures from society to biology, including the preconception period, on ECHOs five key child health outcome areaspre-, peri- and postnatal, upper and lower airways, obesity, neurodevelopment, and positive healthamong diverse populations. The objectives of this FOA are to solicit applications to 1) lead collaborative ECHO Cohort science 2) follow up existing ECHO Cohort participants, 3) recruit new pregnant participants from diverse populations, their resulting offspring, and, if available, the conceiving partner, 4) develop and implement the ECHO Cohort Preconception Pilot Study, and 5) implement the ECHO Cohort Data and Biospecimen Collection Protocol using the ECHO Cohort consortiums central data capture system, e.g., REDCap Central. This FOA does not support site-specific analyses and science. Only current ECHO Cohort awardees are eligible to apply. This new funding period will be 7 years in duration provided successful performance in the UG3 phase and the UH3 phase.
