Comparative Biology Elucidation of Environmental Pathways and Susceptibility (R01): The aim of this initiative is to integrate the traditional strengths of the environmental health sciences, alcohol, and the cardiovascular, lung, and blood research communities with the emerging power of comparative biology approaches and high information-content techniques to determine the critical common pathways by which environmental stressors influence human health as well as the determinants of individual and population susceptibility to those environmental stressors. The goal of this request for applications (RFA) is to solicit applications that promote the understanding of biological processes (pathways and/or networks) that, when perturbed by environmental factors, stressors, or alcohol, alter the susceptibility to complex human diseases. It is anticipated that applications for this initiative will have applicability to human research and will ultimately be tested in human systems (through epidemiological studies, association studies in cohort or case-control studies, human cell culture studies, or human clinical or experimental studies).

Applicants Eligible for this Grant: For profit organizations other than small businesses Native American tribal organizations (other than Federally recognized tribal governments) City or township governments Special district governments Independent school districts Nonprofits having a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education Native American tribal governments (Federally recognized) State governments County governments Public housing authorities/Indian housing authorities Nonprofits that do not have a 501(c)(3) status with the IRS, other than institutions of higher education Private institutions of higher education Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification) Public and State controlled institutions of higher education
Additional Information on Eligibility: Foreign institutions are eligible to apply. Eligible agencies of the Federal Government can apply. A required meeting of all RFA funded grantees is to be held each year of funding at the NIEHS campus in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina. The purpose for these meetings is to discuss scientific advances and to discuss the potential for collaborations, data sharing, data repositories, and other research opportunities. Applicants should plan for this expense when preparing their budget. Computational models are encouraged as part of a grant application but may not be proposed exclusively without the complementary use of in vitro or in vivo data. Applicants may submit multiple applications under this announcement provided the applications are sufficiently distinct in scientific scope.
