HEAL Initiative: HEALthy Brain and Child Development Data Coordinating Center (U24)
The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) is to seek applications for a Data Coordinating Center for the HEALthy Brain and Child Development Study. This FOA runs in parallel with companion FOAs that solicit applications for linked (RFA-DA-21-020) and unlinked (RFA-DA-21-021) research sites and a single Consortium Administrative Core (RFA-DA-21-022). It is expected that investigators, upon funding, will work jointly with NIH scientific staff to assist, guide, coordinate, and participate in project data collection and harmonization activities of HBCD research sites. The HBCD Data Coordinating Center (HDCC) will develop (and revise as necessary) the procedures for collection of the core neuroimaging, neuropsychological, and other phenotypic assessment data in a manner that will maximize comparability across the individual research sites of the consortium for the HBCD longitudinal study.
