Emergency Awards: HEAL Initiative: Coordinating Center for National Pain Scientists Career Development (R24 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)
Funding Opportunity RFA-NS-22-060 from the NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts. There is an urgent need for more research to establish best practices in the pain management field, however, there is a limited workforce pipeline of pain researchers to meet NIHs long-term goals of providing effective non-opioid options for the treatment of pain conditions and better pain management overall. The Interagency Pain Research Coordinating Committee (IPRCC) has identified the workforce problem as a barrier for new pain research, and has identified factors that contributed to it such as barriers to entry into the field of pain rese...

Reducing Administrative Burden in Laboratory Animal Research: What Have We Done Recently and What ’s Coming…
Pat Brown, Director, NIH Office of Laboratory Animal Welfare
The 21st Century Cures Act called for NIH to collaborate with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to reduce administrative burdens associated with laboratory animal research programs, while maintaining high standards of animal welfare as well as the integrity and credibility of the research. We jointly released a final report in 2019 outlining steps to accomplish this goal, and have since worked together to implement many of the recommendations. We wanted to take this opportunity today to share some of NIH’s progress...

It ’s Not a Grant…It’s Not a Contract…It’s an Other Transaction!
You have likely heard about NIH establishing one of the most diverse health databases in history, aiming for at least a million participants. What about our search for new, more targeted pain treatments? Maybe the long-COVID cohort study? Or our cloud computing activities to enhance data access? Aside from these all being quite ambitious projects, they have something else in common. They are all supported through one of NIH’s Other Transactions Authorities.
What does this mean? “Other Transactions” are not grants. They are neither contracts nor cooperative agreements. Other Transactions are a unique type of legal fun...
