Grant Description: Biopsychosocial perspectives and approaches to research can contribute to our understanding of the etiology, course, and outcomes of rheumatic, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases, but behavioral research in these disorders has been relatively limited. To increase integration of behavioral and biopsychosocial approaches into rheumatic, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases research, the NIAMS has identified a fundamental need to foster interdisciplinary training of scientists with interests in these diseases. Behavioral scientists who wish to pursue biobehavioral research in rheumatic, musculoskeletal, or skin diseases may require additional training in the biomedical and clinical aspects of these diseases; biomedical scientists may require training in behavioral theory and methods. This announcement is intended to attract promising behavioral researchers to the study of rheumatic, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases, and to encourage biomedical researchers to adopt a biopsychosocial approach to research, with the ultimate goal of enhancing the quality and quantity of interdisciplinary biobehavioral research in these diseases. With this RFA, the NIAMS is requesting applications for fellowships (postdoctoral and senior), Mentored Research Scientist Development Awards, Mentored Clinical Scientist Development Awards, and Mentored Career Transition Awards in behavioral research in rheumatic, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases.
