School Nutrition and Physical Activity Policies, Obesogenic Behaviors and Weight Outcomes (R03)
Purpose.
This Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), is issued by the National Institutes of Healths National Cancer Institute (NCI), National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI), Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR), and the Centers of Disease Control and Preventions National Center for Chronic Disease Prevention and Health Promotion (CDC).
The FOA encourages Research Project Grant (R03) applications that propose to:
(1) foster multidisciplinary research that will evaluate how policies (federal, state and school district levels) can influence school physical activity and nutrition environments, youths obesogenic behaviors (e.g., nutrition and physical activity behaviors), and weight outcomes; (2) understand how schools are implementing these policies and examine multi-level influences on adoption and implementation at various levels (e.g.
federal, state, school district, and school); and (3) understand the synergistic or counteractive effect of school nutrition and physical activity polices on the home and community environment and body weight.
The R03 grant mechanism supports different types of projects including pilot and feasibility studies; secondary analysis of existing data; small, self-contained research projects; development of research methodology; and development of new research technology.
The R03 is intended to support small research projects that can be carried out in a short period of time with limited resources.
Mechanism of Support.
This FOA runs parallel with two other FOAs of similar scientific scope PA-10-052 and PA-10-053; these encourage applications under the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R01) and NIH Small Research (R21) grant mechanisms.
Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards.
Awards issued under this FOA are contingent upon the availability of funds and the submission of a sufficient number of meritorious applications.
