RFA-HL-08-013, Translating Basic
Behavioral and Social Science Discoveries into Interventions
to Reduce Obesity: Centers for Behavioral Intervention
Development (U01) has just been published in the NIH Guide
for Grants and Contracts:
http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-HL-08-013.html
This FOA solicits cooperative agreement (U01) applications
from institutions/organizations that propose to translate
findings from basic research on human behavior into more
effective clinical, community, and population interventions
to reduce obesity and improve obesity-related behaviors.
This FOA will support Centers for Behavioral Intervention
Development (CBIDs) in which interdisciplinary teams of
basic and applied behavioral and social science researchers
develop and refine novel interventions based on basic
research findings to reduce obesity and alter
obesity-related health behaviors (e.g., diet, physical
activity).
Applicants to this RFA are strongly encouraged
to speak with NIH program staff before submitting their
application. Please read the announcement in full before
contacting program staff (these persons are listed in
Section VII as Scientific/Research Contacts).
