About this opportunity
The National Institutes of Health is soliciting applications for continuation funding of the DISCOVERY of Risk Factors for Type 2 Diabetes in Youth Study, a multi-center longitudinal consortium across 19 clinical sites, under a single-source cooperative agreement with no application deadline specified in this forecast document.
This is a single-source competition open to eligible organizations only; the source does not specify eligible applicant categories beyond "Other." The award will support the Biostatistics Research Center serving as the consortium's central coordinating center, managing protocol implementation, data management, quality assurance, statistical design and analysis, and inter-site coordination for the ongoing study. The study actively recruits and follows early pubertal youth at high risk for youth-onset type 2 diabetes, with longitudinal follow-up currently underway. The funding purpose is to support completion of the scientific objectives of the existing clinical consortium while preserving the integrity of the established longitudinal dataset.
Award amount, number of awards, and period of performance are not specified. Place of performance spans 19 clinical sites; the administrative coordinating center location is not identified in this forecast.
Applications will undergo standard NIH peer review by scientific authorities before meritorious applications compete for available funds. Evaluation will assess scientific merit, significance of proposed objectives, technical adequacy of experimental design, investigator competency, adequacy of facilities and resources, budget necessity, and relevance to program objectives.
The opportunity falls under CFDA 93.847, Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research, administered by the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases within the National Institutes of Health.
Forecast synopsis
The DISCOVERY of Risk Factors for Type 2 Diabetes in Youth Study is a multi-center longitudinal consortium conducted across 19 clinical sites to identify risk factors and biological mechanisms driving progression to youth-onset type 2 diabetes. The study is actively recruiting and following early pubertal youth at high risk for the disease with longitudinal follow-up currently underway. The current Biostatistics Research Center (BRC) serves as the consortium's central coordinating center, managing protocol implementation, data management, quality assurance, statistical design and analysis, and inter-site and consortium-wide coordination. The BRC has established the robust infrastructure and standardized processes required to support the study and preserve the integrity of the longitudinal dataset.
The purpose of this single-source solicitation is to support completion of the scientific objectives of the ongoing DISCOVERY clinical consortium.
