Description

This funding opportunity announcement (FOA) invites applications for a Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program Data to Health Coordination Center (CD2H-CC) that will support the activities of the CTSA Program in using data to translate discoveries to health benefit. The CTSA Program supports high quality translational and clinical research locally, regionally, and nationally, and fosters excellence and innovation in research methods, informatics, training, and career development. The CTSA Program is evolving into an innovative national consortium of academic medical centers that comprises hubs working together to support translational science and improve the research process in order to get more treatments to more patients more quickly. It is expected that the CD2H-CC will 1) support and enhance a collaborative informatics community for the CTSA Program, 2) develop Good Data Practice (GDP) for information stewardship, 3) promote software standards for interoperability, 4) foster collaborative innovation in the area of informatics tools, methods, and processes, 5) stimulate the use of cutting edge biomedical research informatics and data science education for CTSA Program researchers, and 6) evaluate the impact of CD2H-CC activities to enhance health through the use of informatics resources. Through these activities it is expected that the CD2H-CC will discover, develop, demonstrate, and disseminate innovation in informatics tools, standards, methods, and processes and will facilitate collaboration and consortium activities in the area of innovative informatics solutions that will translate to health benefit.
