This forecasted Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) from the National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases (NIAMS), NIH, solicits applications for research on ancillary studies that leverage resources from ongoing parent clinical studies, such as patient cohorts, infrastructure, data, and biological samples. While parent studies may fall outside the NIAMS mission, ancillary studies supported through this mechanism must align with the NIAMS mission, which is focused on arthritis, musculoskeletal, and skin diseases. Clinical trials are not permitted under this opportunity. Collaborative research approaches leveraging clinical research expertise are encouraged. This is a pre-announcement: applications are not currently being solicited. The forecast provides lead time for potential applicants to develop relevant collaborations and projects.
