About this program
The Department of Health and Human Services Centers for Disease Control and Prevention funded comparative effectiveness research through Prevention Research Centers under CFDA 93.730, with the most recent grant awards disbursed on July 14, 2010.
This program is not currently active. All four recorded awards were made in 2010 and completed between 2013 and early 2013; no grants have been awarded in the past sixteen years. The source contains no recent grant opportunities, and no indication that the program remains open to new applications.
When active, the program supported Prevention Research Centers conducting comparative effectiveness research comparing innovative public health strategies or interventions in new settings or populations, including minority and disabled populations. Funded projects investigated outcomes spanning cardiovascular disease risk reduction through combined lifestyle and medication interventions, diabetic retinopathy detection via telemedicine, and community-based falls prevention. The program emphasized policy or environmental interventions designed to generate new scientific evidence addressing knowledge gaps, with attention to implementation replicability and defined outcome measures.
All four awards were structured as Cooperative Agreements, totaling $10 million in combined federal dollars obligated. The CDC was the sole funding agency. Individual awards ranged from approximately $1.5 million to $3.3 million: NYU Prevention Research Center received $3.3 million for its comparative effectiveness research program; an unnamed recipient received $3.2 million for a combined lifestyle and medication intervention study targeting cardiovascular disease risk; telemedicine retinopathy detection research was funded at $2 million; and community-based falls prevention in Pennsylvania was awarded $1.5 million.
No active solicitations or recently posted opportunities are present in the source. Organizations pursuing prevention research funding through federal sources should explore whether successor programs or alternative CDC research funding lines have replaced this initiative.
Objective and description
- Objective
To support Prevention Research Centers (PRCs) to perform comparative effectiveness research (CER) that compares innovative public health strategies or interventions, in new settings or populations (such as minorities or people with disabilities), and that preferably include new endpoints such as biologic measures or combined clinical and social interventions. The emphasis is to develop new scientific evidence that fills important knowledge gaps. The interventions or strategies should be policy or environmental but are expected to consider what targeted outcome(s) are anticipated and how such outcomes will be achieved and to describe how the intervention will be implemented so it can be replicated by others.
