Grant Description

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) invites applications for a Cooperative Agreement (U01) from single institutions or consortia of institutions which are capable of, and interested in, participating in a Musculoskeletal Disorders Consortium (MSDC). The goal of the MSDC is to coordinate a prospective cohort study to quantify the risk of upper limb and low back musculoskeletal disorders at varying levels of exposure to physical job stressors (repetitive motion, forceful exertions, awkward postures, manual handling, etc.). This research will involve multiple work sites from the service and manufacturing industries with job tasks that represent a range of exposures to physical job stressors that can result in musculoskeletal disorders. Under this RFA, one new extramural partner that demonstrates expertise in the evaluation of exposure response between low back disorders and the physical demands of lifting and manual handling tasks will be awarded a cooperative agreement and will participate in the MSDC.
