Interventions on Health and Healthcare Disparities on Non-Communicable and Chronic Diseases in Latin America: Improving Health Outcomes Across the Hemisphere (R01 - Clinical Trial Required)

The purpose of this Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) is to support innovative and interdisciplinary research teams focused on clinical, health services, and/or community-based interventions that address health and healthcare disparities related to non-communicable and chronic diseases (NCDs) with the highest burden and mortality in Latin America and among U.S. Hispanics/Latinos. Multidisciplinary 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. This R01 research grant requires clinical trials and aims to improve health outcomes across the hemisphere through evidence-based interventions targeting chronic disease disparities. The program emphasizes interdisciplinary collaboration between U.S. and Latin American institutions to develop and test interventions that can be implemented in diverse healthcare settings.
