About this opportunity
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to solicit UG3/UH3 phased, cooperative agreement research applications to evaluate, implement, and/or test population-based interventions to policies, programs, and/or practices for promoting integration of services, systems, and/or values by leveraging cross-sector partnerships in communities. Such interventions must address social and chronic disease common risk factors and/or barriers driving oral disease burden in communities. Projects funded through this funding opportunity and a separately funded Community Engagement Evaluation and Data Coordination hub (CEED) will form a Community-Based Participatory Research (CBPR) consortium: Advancing Data and Practice Transformation (ADAPT), which will receive consultative services from the NIH Community Engagement Alliance Consultative Resource (CEACR) and join in the Science Collaborative for Health and Artificial Intelligence Reduction of Errors (SCHARE) platform for the overarching goal of promoting data use and transformational community engagement to optimize oral health for all people across the lifespan.
Portfolio context — this listing covers more than this opportunity
This opportunity is funded under Assistance Listing 93.121 (“Oral Diseases and Disorders Research”), a broad federal program that made about 300 new awards per year over the last five fiscal years (median award $438k). Those figures describe that whole portfolio — not this specific solicitation, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's track record.
Applicant counts per solicitation are not published by any federal agency — no one can honestly sell you that number. NIH publishes success rates by institute and activity code — source.
