The National Institutes of Health Common Fund announced the release of a Request for Information (RFI) to obtain new ideas on NIH-wide challenges and opportunities. The Common Fund supports bold scientific programs that catalyze discovery across all biomedical and behavioral research. These programs bring together investigators and multiple NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices to collaborate on innovate research. The NIH is requesting ideas for biomedical and behavioral research challenges and opportunities that may inform Common Fund workshops, pilot initiatives, or new programs.

Do you have an idea that could push biomedical or behavioral research forward? Take part in this exciting process and submit your ideas today: https://bit.ly/Common-Fund-Ideas

Thank you for your input! The request for information is now closed

NIH staff hosted a technical assistance webinar for community organizations who received an invitation email to submit a full application to the NIH Common Fund’s Community Partnerships to Advance Science for Society (ComPASS) Research Opportunity Announcement (ROA) OTA-22-007. In this presentation, NIH staff provided an overview of the ComPASS program, full application requirements and review process, a brief overview of the Other Transaction Authority (OTA) Mechanism and the NIH ASSIST system. They also answered questions from webinar participants. The goals of ComPASS are to 1) develop, share, and evaluate community-led health equity structural interventions that leverage partnerships across multiple sectors to reduce health disparities and 2) develop a new health equity research model for community-led, multisectoral structural intervention research across NIH and other federal agencies.
