Laboratories to Optimize Digital Health (R01 Clinical Trial Required)

NIMH seeks applications for innovative research projects to test strategies to increase the reach, efficiency, effectiveness, and quality of digital mental health interventions. This NOFO is intended to support the development of digital health test beds that leverage well-established digital mental health platforms, to rapidly refine and optimize existing evidence-based digital health interventions and conduct clinical trials testing digital mental health interventions that are statistically powered to provide a definitive answer regarding the intervention's effectiveness. The program aims to advance the field of digital mental health by creating robust testing environments for evidence-based interventions and supporting definitive clinical trials that can provide clear answers about intervention effectiveness.
