Check Case Studies on Inclusion Across the Lifespan
As you plan your human subjects research, use the Inclusion Across the Lifespan Case Studies to help you determine if your proposed study population is appropriate. Following the Inclusion Across the Lifespan policy, NIH-supported research must include individuals of all ages unless there is a scientific or ethical reason not to include a specific age group. The Case Studies summarize the scientific and ethical aspects of age-related inclusion in four fictional study scenarios. Consider Case #1:   Study summary: An investigator is planning a study analyzing stress and anxiety levels in children involved in care...

Parenting in a Time of COVID
Guest post by Carrie Wolinetz, Ph.D., NIH Associate Director for Science Policy, originally released on the Under the Poliscope blog Carrie Wolinetz, Ph.D.,Associate Director for Science Policy, NIH Next week marks the one-year anniversary of NIH shifting to maximum telework in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Like employers and employees across the country, overnight we needed to adapt our entire enterprise and reinvent our jobs in the virtual workplace. Coincidentally, next week is also when with a deep breath and a big hug, I send my six year old back to school in person, masked up and excited to meet his 1st grade...

HEAL Initiative: Integrated Approach to Pain and Opioid Use in Hemodialysis Patients: The Hemodialysis Opioid Prescription Effort (HOPE) Consortium - Clinical Centers (U01 Clinical Trial Required)
Funding Opportunity RFA-DK-18-030 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. Pain is a common problem in Medicare End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) Hemodialysis (HD) patients, but its prevalence varies widely by geography, dialysis unit, and possibly, ethnicity. Pain has been linked to decreased quality of life, lack of social support, depressed mood and other mental health disorders. Chronic opioid prescription has been identified in approximately 20% of US ESRD HD patients, far higher than in Medicare comparison populations. Opioid doses prescribed to HD patients exceed Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) ...
