Opportunity Summary:
This NIH Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD) funding opportunity (RFA-HD-14-018) supports a single award to establish and operate the Data Coordinating Center (DCC) for the NICHD Cooperative Multicenter Reproductive Medicine Network under a U10 cooperative agreement mechanism. The network is an ongoing multicenter clinical research program focused on fertility-related conditions and care, spanning reproductive medicine and gynecology as well as related fields such as endocrinology, urology, and andrology. The core purpose of the DCC is to provide the central infrastructure that allows multiple clinical sites to run interventional and observational studies using common, standardized protocols, so that questions about diagnosis and treatment can be addressed efficiently, consistently, and with high data quality across sites.
Because this is a cooperative agreement (rather than a standard research grant), the project is intended to be carried out in close collaboration with NICHD staff. In practice, that typically means the DCC is expected to play a hands-on coordinating role across the network: supporting protocol development and implementation, building and managing data systems, ensuring uniform data collection and quality control, coordinating statistical design and analysis plans, and facilitating the operational pieces that make multicenter studies work (for example, harmonized procedures, study documentation, reporting, and cross-site communication). The overall emphasis is on enabling rigorous multicenter clinical research that can lead to practical diagnostic and therapeutic solutions for fertility problems.
The opportunity falls under the NIH assistance listing CFDA 93.865 (Child Health and Human Development Extramural Research). NICHD expected to make one award, with an estimated total funding level of about $3.3 million for the competition as posted. There is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The FOA was posted January 7, 2013, with an original and current closing date of April 4, 2013, and an archive date of May 5, 2013, indicating it was a time-limited solicitation.
Eligibility is broad across U.S.-based organizations and governmental entities, including nonprofits (with or without 501(c)(3) status), for-profit organizations (other than small businesses are explicitly listed as eligible; small businesses are also listed), public and private institutions of higher education, and a range of government applicants (state, county, city/township, special district governments, independent school districts, public housing/Indian housing authorities), as well as tribal governments and tribal organizations. The FOA also explicitly includes as eligible several categories of mission-focused institutions and organizations such as HBCUs, Hispanic-serving institutions, tribally controlled colleges and universities, Alaska Native and Native Hawaiian serving institutions, and Asian American/Native American/Pacific Islander serving institutions, along with faith-based or community-based organizations and regional organizations. Foreign institutions are not eligible, and foreign components (including non-U.S. components of U.S. organizations) are not allowed under this announcement.
Administratively, the sponsoring agency is the National Institutes of Health (NIH) through NICHD. The public announcement link provided in the posting is the NIH Guide page for the RFA (http://grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/rfa-files/RFA-HD-14-018.html).
