Fund Number: 3491
Fund Title: Nutrition and Prevention, Care, and Treatment of HIV/AIDS (R01)
Fund Category:
HIV/AIDS
Description:
Total Grant Amounts: The NICHD intends to commit approximately $2 million to support six to eight awards in FY 2008. The NIMH intends to contribute $300,000 to support one R01 application under this FOA.
This FOA is intended to stimulate and strengthen a multidisciplinary approach to a complex, under-researched area and to form a basis for future research and clinical care. Specifically, the NICHD and NIMH invite new and experienced basic scientists, epidemiologists, and clinical investigators to submit research grant applications to further understanding of the relationship between nutrition and HIV infection. Such research will support the integration of nutrition into all aspects of care and treatment of people infected and affected by HIV/AIDS. Consequently, research grant applications are encouraged that address preclinical or clinical, biomedical, and/or behavioral research. Examples of topics for such studies include, but are not limited to, the following:
(1) The potential impact of nutritional factors on HIV transmission and progression;
(2) Nutritional requirements for optimal growth, development (neurological development and subsequent cognitive/behavioral outcomes), and maintenance of health (including prevention care and treatment of HIV-related co-morbidities) of women, infants and children infected and affected by HIV;
(3) The interaction of and subsequent impact of HIV infection and nutrition on breastfeeding from the perspective of both maternal and infant health outcomes;
(4) Best practices for feeding of infants and children born of HIV-infected mothers;
(5) Interactions among antiretroviral therapies, diet, nutrition, and health in women, infants, and children;
(6) Nutritional assessment methodologies that would be most appropriate for screening and follow-up of patients, before, during, and after ARV; and
(7) Specific functional biomarkers of outcome related to the nutrition-HIV relationship.
Part of the difficulty in extracting the role that nutrition might play in the course of HIV infection is that once the infection is established, it has its own metabolic consequences. Therefore, pre-infection data are needed in high-risk populations as well as comparative data from age-, gender-, and demographically-matched uninfected children. Such data sets should include an appreciation of current dietary intake patterns, utilizing available food composition data for indigenous foods.
Additional consideration will be given to applications that propose the development of nutritional assessment methodologies and specific functional biomarkers of outcome related to the nutrition/HIV relationship. Special attention will be given to methods that could be effectively employed in field settings in resource-poor environments.

Fund Number: 3493
Fund Title: NIH Revision Awards for Studying Interactions Among Social, Behavioral, and Genetic Factors in Health (R01)
Fund Category:
Other Health-Related
Description:
Total Grant Amounts: $ 3 million dollars available in FY 2008.
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) issues this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) to invite NIH-funded investigators to submit supplement applications to their currently funded research to study how interactions among genetic and behavioral/social factors influence health and disease. The knowledge gained by such research will improve the understanding of the determinants of disease as well as inform efforts to reduce health risks and provide treatment. This FOA solicits for human and non-human studies to advance the understanding of the interactions among genetic, social, and behavioral factors that influence the processes affecting variability in disease and health progression and outcomes. This program is focused on questions concerning the effects of (1) the interaction of genetic and social or behavioral factors and (2) gene-environment-behavioral interactions; and to better understand how the interaction of behaviors and social environmental factors affect
gene expression, disease and behavior phenotypes, and health outcomes.
How genetic, behavioral, and social factors interact in human physiological processes and differentially influence disease expression and health outcomes remains understudied. A number of research gaps have been identified including the following: (1) genetic studies that explore the relationship between genotypes and quantitative traits often do not include social and behavioral factors, and (2) social and behavioral research studies rarely include consideration of genetic factors and related mechanisms when studying social and/or behavioral phenomena.
To bridge these gaps, this announcement is intended to stimulate theoretically and methodologically rigorous research that integrates genetics, behavioral, and social sciences research efforts to specifically address questions of gene-environment-behavior interactions. This announcement provides the opportunity for current NIH-funded grantees whose research is either (1) social and/or behavioral science-oriented research to add a genetic/genomic component, or (2) genetic-focused research to add social and behavioral factors into their research plan. In either case, the proposed research must be designed to elucidate how the interactions between genetic and social and/or behavioral factors contribute to health and disease. The proposed research can expand the scope of the original project and should be a logical extension of the goals and objectives of the parent grant
To be considered responsive to this announcement, (1) the proposed research must include unambiguous, interdisciplinary perspectives; (2) the hypothesis(es) of the relationship(s) between the genetics, behaviors, social environment, and/or social processes must be clearly stated; (3) hypothesis about the proposed study should investigate how the interactions (not associations) among these variables influence the outcomes under study; and (4) the proposed study should be embedded in a well articulated set of research questions or hypothesis generated from genetic, social, and/or behavioral sciences research.
