About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Blueprint for Neuroscience Research is seeking applicants for a Coordination Center for Interoception Research (BPCCIR) through a U24 cooperative agreement. The grant aims to establish a multidisciplinary research center to promote interoception research, which involves understanding how organisms sense, interpret, integrate, and regulate internal bodily signals. Key objectives include developing digital communication platforms, hosting annual scientific meetings, identifying research challenges, establishing common terminology and data standards, and generating metrics for research community sustainability. Applications will be evaluated based on scientific merit, investigator qualifications, research approach, innovation, and relevance to program objectives. The grant opportunity is open to various applicant types including academic institutions, nonprofits, small businesses, and government entities, with a posted date of May 5, 2025, and a proposal due date of November 10, 2025.
While specific award amounts are not detailed in the grant opportunity, the cooperative agreement will support a comprehensive research initiative focused on interdisciplinary interoception research. The project is expected to span multiple years, with the center required to host at least one scientific meeting annually and develop ongoing communication platforms for researchers. Research will be conducted at the recipient organization's facilities, with the goal of bridging gaps between brain and body studies and improving understanding of how organisms process internal bodily signals. The NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research, involving 14 NIH Institutes, Centers, and Offices, will provide oversight and support for this innovative research coordination center.
Synopsis
The purpose of this NOFO is to establish the NIH Blueprint for Neuroscience Research Coordination Center for Interoception Research (BPCCIR). Interoception, for the purpose of this NOFO, encompasses the processes by which an organism or a person senses, interprets, integrates, and regulates signals that represent the internal states. The goals of the NBCCIR are to: 1) promote a multidisciplinary approach for interoception research, and 2) bridge the gap between brain and body studies through a cooperative agreement funding mechanism, U24. This NOFO aims to foster interactions within the broad community of interoception researchers, rather than focusing on disease-specific subdisciplines. Specifically, the NOFO will support efforts to: 1) establish and maintain a multidisciplinary team of interoception researchers to oversee and guide NBCCIR activities; 2) create and support digital communication platforms to facilitate networking, collaborations, and information dissemination; 3) plan, organize, and host at least one scientific meeting per year that will include NIH-funded interoception researchers, trainees, and other stakeholders; 4) identify challenges and future technological and scientific opportunities for the field of interoception and develop common terminology, data standards, and common data elements; and 5) generate metrics of success and plans to ensure the sustainability of the interoception research community.
