This listing sits under an agency-wide umbrella (CFDA 93.242, Mental Health Research Grants — ~863 awards/yr across many separate competitions). Program-level statistics would describe the whole umbrella, not this competition, so we don't show them as if they were this opportunity's history. Any tool showing "award history" for this listing at the program level is describing the umbrella.
Listing summary
The purpose of this Notice of Funding Announcement (NOFO) is to encourage pilot research that is not an immediate precursor to testing a service intervention but is consistent with NIMH priorities for services research. While NIMH now requires use of an experimental therapeutics model for all intervention studies, there is recognition that some mission-relevant areas of services research do not involve clinical trials.
