The goal of this Notice of Special interest (NOSI) from the National Cancer Institute (NCI) is to support administrative supplements for currently funded investigators to better understand within-group factors that contribute to cancer prevention and control outcomes and intervention effectiveness in populations that are underrepresented in or excluded from cancer research. This administrative supplement would provide funding for one year to initiate or enhance evaluation of heterogeneity within populations and/or how this heterogeneity influences cancer outcomes, within the scope of the parent grant.
For this Notice, applications should focus on heterogeneity within under-resourced settings and/or among populations that are traditionally underrepresented in or excluded from behavioral research, including minoritized racial and ethnic groups, socioeconomically disadvantaged populations, rural populations, LGBTQ+ individuals, and individuals living with intellectual or physical disabilities.
