The National Institutes of Health (NIH), a part of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, is the nation’s medical research agency — making important discoveries that improve health and save lives.
This Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) will support innovative, collaborative, and multi-disciplinary research focused on clinical epidemiology, evaluation of public and/or health care policies, and validation of measurements that address health and health care disparities related to non-communicable and chronic diseases (NCDs) with the highest disease burden and mortality in Latin America and among U.S. Hispanics/Latinos. Multi-disciplinary research teams would be expected to meaningfully collaborate with key partners that must include at least one PI or MPI from institutions in Latin America.
