Description:
This PA invites investigator-initiated grant applications for Mental Health Centers for Intervention Development and Applied Research (CIDAR). The primary purpose of each CIDAR is to support a team of leading basic, applied and clinical investigators engaged in a focused research program targeting a specific problem in clinical medicine. Center applications responsive to this PA may focus on research to: 1) define predictors and understand the mechanism of treatment response in major mental disorders; 2) create and refine biomarkers to assess the presence and/or extent of mental illness; and/or 3) hasten the development of novel treatments for mental disorders. The primary goal of this initiative is to support the translation of basic and clinical research into innovations in clinical assessment and therapeutics. Applicants may request support for a period of up to five years, followed by a competitive renewal application for a second five-year period.!
Direct costs are limited to 1.5 million in any one year. This limit applies to new grants, their non-competitive continuations, and any subsequent competitive renewals.
