Mechanisms, Models, Measurement, and Management in Pain Research (R01): -The purpose of this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), "Mechanisms, Models, Measurement, and Management in Pain Research," issued by the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) is to inform the scientific community of the pain research interests of the various Institutes and Centers (ICs) at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and to stimulate and foster a wide range of basic, clinical, and translational studies on pain as they relate to the missions of these ICs. -New advances are needed in every area of pain research, from the micro perspective of molecular sciences to the macro perspective of behavioral and social sciences. Although great strides have been made in some areas, such as the identification of neural pathways of pain, the experience of pain and the challenge of treatment have remained uniquely individual and unsolved. Research to address these issues conducted by interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary research teams is strongly encouraged, as is research from underrepresented, minority, disabled, or women investigators. -Mechanism of Support. This FOA will utilize the NIH Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism and runs in parallel with FOAs of identical scientific scope, PA-06-543, that solicits applications under the R03 mechanism and PA-06-542, that solicits applications under the R21 mechanism.
