Description
NIMHD invites applications from eligible institutions to establish a national coordinating center (CC) for NIMHD-funded Research Centers in Minority Institutions (RCMIs). The RCMI CC will work closely with key personnel at all RCMI Specialized Centers and with NIMHD staff to help the centers collectively achieve their objectives to: (1) enhance institutional research capacity within the areas of basic biomedical, behavioral, and/or clinical research (patient-oriented and health services research); (2) enable all levels of investigators to become more successful in obtaining competitive extramural support, especially from NIH, particularly on diseases that disproportionately impact minority and other health disparity populations; (3) foster environments conducive to career enhancement with a special emphasis on development of early career investigators; (4) enhance the quality of all scientific inquiry and promote research on minority health and health disparities; (5) establish sustainable relationships with community-based organizations that partner with RCMI centers, and (6) centralize and harmonize study operations, coordinate data management, provide biostatistical support to facilitate rapid development and implementation of minority health and health disparity studies conducted in the RCMI-CRNHE (Clinical Research Network for Health Equity) (see RFA-MD-22-006), and also manage a Network Steering Committee . The RCMI CC will be responsive to requests generated by RCMI site key personnel, NIMHD, NIH, the scientific community, and the general public. Eligible applicant institutions for this FOA are limited to recipients of RCMI awards through RFA-MD-17-003, RFA-MD-17-006, RFA-MD-18-012, RFA-MD-20-006, PAR-11-132, RFA-MD-22-002, RFA-MD-23-001, or RFA-MD-24-001.
