Grant Description: This FOA issued by Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), National Institutes of Health (NIH), encourages Research Conference Grant (R13) applications from institutions and organizations that propose to develop collaborative research teams to address priority areas under the Indo-US Program for Maternal, Child Health and Human Development Research (MCHD). Teams must include investigators from US and Indian institutions involved in basic, clinical and social and/or behavioral sciences with particular emphasis on maternal, infant and child health. This FOA is intended to provide support for collaborative conferences designed to address high priority areas identified by the Indo-US MCHDR Joint Working Group (JWG) utilizing the NIH Conference grant mechanism. The goal of this FOA will be to support collaborations between US and Indian scientists intended to translate science into improved practice and technology addressing issues in maternal and child health. Specifically, conferences would be designed to: 1) review the extant science, 2) identify research gaps, 3) develop a targeted research agenda and 4) wherever possible establish new partnerships to address these gaps through collaborative research proposals. The intent is to broaden the scope of investigation into scientific problems, yield fresh and possibly unexpected insights, and increase the sophistication of theoretical, methodological, analytical and implementation approaches. This program will allow investigators from multiple disciplines to hold meetings in order to provide the foundation for developing interdisciplinary research projects.
