Description

This FOA issued by Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), National Institutes of Health (NIH), encourages Small Research Grant (R03) applications for its cooperative program of Maternal and Child Health and Human Development Research (MCHDR). The Republic of India and the United States of America invite collaborative research applications involving U.S. and Indian investigators to enhance maternal and child health, disease prevention, product development and/or technology transfer. The MCHDR program places specific emphasis on the need for more "translational" types of research intended to move beyond basic science and discovery to product development, utilization, and improved care for women, infants and children. An emphasis will also be placed on studies addressing social, behavioral or other factors affecting implementation of established and/or new approaches to prevention, care, and treatment of disease/poor health in women, infants, and children.
