Grant Description: Purpose. In this Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA), the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), and the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), and the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality, encourage research on women's mental health in relation to pregnancy and the postpartum period. As illustrated by a few highly publicized cases, the consequences of severe untreated postpartum depression and psychosis can be devastating for individuals, families, and communities. A recent evidence-based practice report from the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality noted that depression is also prevalent during pregnancy as well as the postpartum period, therefore research that occurs throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period (the perinatal period) is encouraged. Mechanism of Support. This FOA will use the NIH Exploratory/Developmental (R21) award mechanism and runs in parallel with an FOA of identical scientific scope, PA-09-174, that encourages applications under the Research Project Grant (R01) award mechanism. Funds Available and Anticipated Number of Awards. Because the nature and scope of the proposed research will vary from application to application, it is anticipated that the size and duration of each award will also vary. The total amount awarded and the number of awards will depend upon the mechanism, numbers, quality, duration, and costs of the applications received.
